She doesnt look like any easter eggers ive seen online. ? So what do you think?

Easter eggers are basically the mutts of the chicken world. They might have Ameraucana or Araucana blood in them some point in their lineage, but aren't purebred.
Usually they lay green eggs, but can lay just about any color. Usually they have muffs, but not always. Usually they have the green legs, but not always. You get the picture XD

Easter eggers are a mutt and all look pretty different. Some may have similar patterns, but there is a large variety. EEs tend to lay blue or green. But can lay brown, olive, their a mix, a hybrid.

So possibly green but no blue? I sure hope they don't turn out brown. I would LOVE to have blue or green eggs. SO NEAT! LOL

Yet they are my favorite breed. You just never know what your going to get, in my case not just egg color or feather pattern, but a cockerel as well

Are they like dog mutts in that they are mostly healthier or so I've heard because of no or less inbreeding?

I love my EEs. I had an absolutely fantastic EE roo who was the best roo I've ever had. Such a gentleman. High praise for these birds!

Since they are your favorite breed do you know if they lay a lot and then burn out and die young or their lifespan or anything? Thanks!
