May be a Easter egger or some other mix breed? Definitely not a Yokohama

For chicks sold in a feed store or ordered from a hatchery, mystery chicks with fluffy cheeks are usually Easter Eggers. This is especially likely if they have pea combs (which I think your chick does.)

Easter Eggers come in so many different colors they can be hard to identify, except by ruling out everything else or waiting for them to grow up and lay colored eggs.
 
Ok thats helpful, thanks guys! Ya i definitely didnt agree with the red shoulder Yokohama that they thought. When she was younger i thought maybe EE cause of her cheeks but then thought salmon favorfolle but she doesnt have feather feet so that got scratched. So it could be an EE even if the hatchery doesnt show her coloring ??. I got an EE too from that hatchery and she's all brown right now.
 
Here are some more photos with outside lighting and diff. angles. She's very pretty. She's got white and silvery coloring thru out and then with the redish/cinnamon coloring scattered.
