Ameraucana or Easter Egger?

I got this cjick at a feed store in a “random assorted chicks” they did not know the gender nor breed. Here is the chick. Im pretty sure its a female (sexed when young) and they are feathering out fairly quickly. She is 2 weeks now little early i know but ive gottened down to those two breeds because of the muffs and beard.

EE's, especially from a feed store... My local feed store actually advertises Ameraucana's on their chick list every year. They are always Easter Eggers, not true Ameraucana's..... I'm fine with that but you know, the first time you get sucked in is annoying.....

Yeah, you are right. But im hoping by calling them a her I’ll make it true lol. if they end up being a rooster ill have to rehome them.

Yeah i got an ee that was called an ameracaucana before. Sadly 2 months after she started laying her eggs she passed randomly. The feed store where we got this little one at we got an EE labeled as a EE. It was a suprise that they actually said the correct breed.
