Anyone up for guess the breed?

Okay.
But I've never seen an EE that look like that. They look more like Sussex's.

If they were Sussex or even half Sussex, they would have pink legs. With hatchery birds, they are never random mixes because there just isn't a chance that a bird hops a fence or something along the lines of that. They are mixes with a purpose. Taking into account the crests of these two, the only hatchery mix that they could be would be Easter or Olive Egger

I agree, I hatch an breed EE's. But look at those roos conformation. But they don't have beards, olive legs, or pea combs. Even if I'm not basing off the color, still, the conformation.

Easter Eggers are mixes with the blue gene. Pre-Ameraucanas, before they became an actual breed.

Easter Eggers can have single combs, occasionally light feathering on the legs, lay pink, or white eggs, lack a beard, have slate, yellow, green, or white legs.

I don't have any beardless EEs for example yet.

The Rooster hatched from a blue egg, the two hens came from pink eggs.

Olive egger would be awesome

I

Wondered about the lack of beards as well

Cream Legbars look like this (pics taken from their club website), note the crest, single comb, yellow legs, and lack of any sort of muffs or beard. They still carry the blue egg gene however. Just because they aren't from the South American breeds that have the traits that you have come to associate with being an Easter Egger, doesn't mean they aren't

EEs do not really have a body conformation "type" I agree with @MysteryChicken and @Rhodebar Lover

Anyone can breed EEs.

I do have an EE that has a Gamefowl type body, attitude, & tight feathering. He made one of my birds blind in one eye, when he, & the other rooster got into a fight.
Here's the boy that blinded the other's eye.

The only body conformation types I have in EEs are the "slim" leghorn type, "fat" "normal" type, and the slightly smaller birds. Never seem a gamefowl's body. Never even owned gamefowl. Could I see a picture of him? What was he bred to?
