Blue Rock? Sapphire Gem?

[EKlinds]

Hey Everyone! Hope you’re all having a great start to the week so far. I just picked up this 9 week old pullet sold as a blue rock but the dark legs confuse me, is she really a sapphire gem maybe? Either way I’m happy with her! I’ve wanted this color in my flock for awhile

Her legs are green . She is most likely an Easter Egger.

She looks a lot like one of my little EE crosses.

Sapphire Gem. They can have green legs since Barred Rock was used in their creation.

Green legs are created with the combination of the genetics that make Slate, & Yellow shanks.

Sapphire gems and " blue ricks" are both blue sex links.
The breeds or birds used to produce them are not exactly known and at least one hatchery has changed their formula so it's impossible to say exactly what she is without knowing which hatchery she came from and what they've labeled theirs.
That's also assuming she was a hatchery chick and not just a mixed bred bird someone produced.
