Can anyone identify this hen?

Hi there, everyone! I was at Jamestown (Virginia) last week, and I saw this beautiful hen scratching away. If she's an established breed, I'd love to find one for myself. I think she's just beautiful. I have a friend who has more knowledge about chickens in her pinkie finger than I'll probably have in my entire lifetime, and she didn't recognize the breed--she suggested she's a mixed-breed. Any thoughts?

as inexperienced as I am in identifying hens

it could be a mix or an Easter Egger or an EE mix? JMHO

The variety is buff columbian. Not sure what all largefowl breeds they are available in. Mine are bantam brahmas. Your girl is definitely not that; no ffot feathering, incorrect leg colour and body type. I cannot tell from the photo what kind of comb she has.

I see NOTHING to indicate EE.

She had a single comb. And what does "EE" indicate? Thanks, Kerry
