Easter Egger club!

Out of my 6 chicks I have one EE. She is my favorite. They are 8 weeks old now and are fully feathered. My EE and my Polish are still growing their beards. Today I noticed what looks like the beginnings of saddle feathers. All of my chicks came from My PetChicken as sexed pullets but you never know. I can't have roosters so I would hate to lose my Opal as I named her. What do y'all think from the pics?

My EE gave me a speckled egg. How cool! I've never seen that before. I hope thats a normal for her. They are just freshly starting to lay

I see hen coloring . So I say pullet .
 
My suggested pullet is getting red on her shoulders.
Does that mean she's a male or a white female with red on her wings

I have EE pullets white n black as well this year colored similar to my Brahmas and was told it was most likely from Columbian bred with blue layer.
Yes, I was wondering if my Elsa was a Brahma mix or a Sussex mix. She has a single comb and white legs like a Sussex, but she has some feathers on her legs. (only a little) I really wondering......I don't even know if she's a EE. The only reason I think she is is because of her beard.
 
My mixed chicks from a Bantam Wheaten Ameraucana Roo and a Mille Flora d'Uccle are two weeks old now.
They have some leg feathering like the MF but I see green coming into legs. I think they will have pea combs.
Wish I had taken more pics of the roo and MF when they were little to compare with.
Seems like the MF showed a little single comb at 2 weeks but not sure I remember correctly.

Will be interesting to watch them change, someone on a FB group commented that the mixed birds were usually ugly. . . .
