Ok...her legs are a slate kind of blueish color, but the bottoms of her feet are white. She is growing back the puffs on her cheeks, but I don't see that she had/has a beard underneath.
We got her because she was being picked on. She was the sweet one when we first brought her home, but she is the one who is naughty when a new chicken is introduced. When we introduced the last two she stood at the door from outside and would not allow them to exit to the run. She glares at them. When I holler "Flo, knock it off!" , she walks off all innocent like. She does let me pick her up and hold her, and she likes to be petted. She is fun to take pictures of because she seems to be a ham.

SOUNDS like Ameraucana feet..... if you are not going to breed her it really is not a big deal. She is pretty... I need more blue wheaten pullets..... I only have 1.

I'm just wanting pretty eggs to eat for now. I would like to get one or two more and an Olive egger too. I have a 3 year old granddaughter so a colorful egg basket is a must!

Thanks for educating me!

DeannaOr,

Now I see where her feathers are missing. It will be interesting to see what she looks like when they have grown back. One smart chicken IMO. :O)

Here is my Easter Egger. Her name is Tilda McNugget and she is an absolute goof ball. She cracks me up constantly. She started laying (green) eggs on October 2nd, laid 5 eggs and stopped. Her 3 (non-EE) sisters are still laying regularly. I'm wondering if they are more sensitive than other breeds about the shorter days?? Her feathers are stunning...on her neck they are white and each one lined with brown. Her back, wing chest and tail feathers are yet another pattern. I've never seen such a pretty chicken.
