We have 2 Easter Eggers 2golden dots and this white bird that came as a free chick. She is small but feisty. All white almost no comb and very active and fearless. I added some pics. To see if anyone knows what she is

Looks like a Plymouth White Rock to me. That's what I got as my free chick last year except it was a cockerel and not a pullet. This one looks very similar to the one I had, only with less comb/wattling.
 
I think white I attached a better side pic of her face. They came from meyer hatchery in polk ohio. At first I thought she was a cornish cross on day 1 but when they grew and she didnt I put her in with my egg layer brooder. And I might be wrong but thought all Easter Eggers have beards she does not.

You think so?

Too small of comb and waddles compared to other breeds... in my previous experience. Lobes seem covered by more feathers than I would expect.:pop

I thought so, because its smaller than the EE she has there. My leghorn, that Meyer sent me, her comb stayed small until all of a sudden at about 9 weeks it started growing. LOL
 
Shes over 2 months old if that helps any. I'd expect if shes a cornish to be huge. And shes so small to the other birds her age I'd almost wonder if she was a banthams variety but have never actually see a bantham chick.
