She Must Be a Mix of Breeds - But What?

Just curious, what makes so many people say EE (Easter Egger) cross?

I see not one thing that screams EE.

I echo the EE blood... mainly because she looks somewhat like my Martha, she has the fluffy ear muffs, beard, standard lacing, and beautiful curved beak. What color egg did she lay? She is beautiful...

She is kinda a fluffier pale legged version of many white/black (silver falcon) EEs.

To me she look a lot like a a Faverolles cross. (Not a EE or a EE cross)
Pinkish feet, light feathered feet, single comb, small beard/muff all can be signs of have Faverolles blood in her.
As for color pattern, it looks a lot like Silver Quill (with some coloumbian gene added in the mix)

Faverolles (look at the hen 5th picture down)

Here is the Silver Quill pattern on a OE Game Bantam

mkeawsh,
Does your hen have 4 or 5 toes per foot?
