EEs can have any color legs, comb type, egg color, etc. since they are more of a mutt chicken with no standards. Very pretty birds, still!

I suspect the barred one is too, but need a closer picture to confirm. Americana's and EE's are the same thing - cross breeds. Pure Ameraucana's you can only get from a breeder.
