Don't think she's really a Black Australorp

I purchased this chicken from a breeder here specifically for a black australorp. (I also have a polish and an ameraucana - so the idea was everyone laid a different color egg). The other two have been going strong with laying eggs for about two weeks. Coco, the black chicken, was a couple weeks younger so I wasn't too concerned that she hadn't started laying. The last two days I've had two white eggs each day - I'm starting to think that Coco isn't the Australorp she's supposed to be and has started laying white eggs. Upon paying more attention I see that her earlobes aren't red - she is closer in size to the ameraucana than the polish. (That's her and the Ameraucana in my avatar from May). Any help would be greatly appreciated.

My guess is that she is a Minorca. I don't have that breed but her description seems to fit what a Minorca would look like.
