Please help! Easter Egger experts needed!

[Careta]

Thanks so much for all your help everyone!

She is a lovely girl so I am really happy she is a girl! She's hand raised and with a whole garden to free-range in rarely leaves our courtyard where she can see us. And she flies out to greet us when we get home from work. I just love that!

Thanks for the cull definition too. We got her at one week so maybe it was just a batch of eggs they weren't sure about. Blue eggs or not if she's a girl she's staying

Yep, by cull I was meaning they probably got rid of her because she doesn't have a beard or muffs. The comb looks single but it is up to you to tell us if it is or not.

If it isn't, she'll lay blue eggs.

Hope so

I'll post a picture of the first egg!

I agree its a pullet . Pea combs certainly do not guarantee blue eggs nor do single combs mean they will absolutely not lay blue . There is a greater chance that if a pea combed blue egg layer [ that is only homozygous for blue ] is crossed with a single combed non-blue egg layer , those chicks born with single combs will not lay blue . It is even entirely possible to breed single combed chickens to be pure for the blue egg gene .
ETA and if an Araucana or Ameruacana is not pure for pea combs but is pure for blue eggs , comb type on the chicks is irrelevant and all chicks will carry the blue gene
