Buff Orpington or EE?

[newlyweds]

We got two supposed buff orpington's from our local farmers coop, but I noticed one has greenish gray legs? Could she really be an Easter Egger?
Here is both chicks, the one with the whiter wings has greenish legs.

See the legs?

Here's a close up of the other chick, her legs are yellow.

What do their combs look like? It's hard to tell in the photo.

Looks like there's tiny muffs on the chick with green legs. I'm betting it's an EE. Wait a couple weeks then you'll know for sure.
They might of sold it to you as a Buff Orpington because it's a cross between a Buff and something else...

I have six Buffs and none of them had green legs! Sure looks a little different, huh? Still cute and you'll love it anyway.

Yeah...my guess is a buff orp. got bred with something else... Well...EEs and Orps are both friendly type birds, so it'll probably be a sweetie.

i say EE too, BO have pinkish legs when they are that young... those are some green legs on that one!!

eta: in the first pic it looks more reddish than buffs usually are, but that could be the lighting, or my screen/eyes

Thanks everyone! It sure is fun learning all about the different breeds. I just noticed yesterday that her legs were different. But I am happy I love green eggs and legs, lol!


eta: Yes she is a little darker on the head and neck, but then her wings are coming in white.

Looks like the chicks I hatched from a BO X EE cross. They are some of the fave birds in my flock but yeah the green legs suggest the chick is not pure BO.

There not Buff Orpingtons.
The one with Green legs look like it's going to be solid White and might be a EE. I all so think it's a young rooster but time will tell on that..
The one with Yellow legs might be a Buff Rock but it isn't a Buff Orp.
Orps.; Buff and White have Pinkish White legs and all Orps will have Pinkish White color to the bottom of there feet and toes.
