8 week EE Green Queen or Green King?

[LCsAChickenLover]

She was supposed to be a sexed pullet from Meyer, but I’ve had my suspicions about “her” for a little while now. I’ve found a few threads on here that have given me hopes that this is just an early developing pullet?

I think you both are thinking of the Whiting True Green which looks very much like a RSL.
The Green Queens are like traditional EEs and come in all colors.
