What breed is my favorite little peanut?

[Spires6]

Peanut has blue legs like an Aracuana. Very sweet.

I had one that was nearly black as a chick and by the time she grew up was a light amber golden speckled girl. Takes a looong time to tell sex, at least for me. The girl I mentioned is Alexander. Our rooster's name is Phoebe! (wishful thinking)

I have a lovely EE hen named June. There is not a thing wrong with Easter Eggers! I love my EEs and my Ameraucanas. The EEs lay green eggs and the Ameraucanas lay blue to greenish blue.

Darling EE! All 6 of mine are wild children! I'd love for them to like to be held, caught, etc., but they fly around and go nuts!

You got yourself a KEEPER !!

I have a few peanuts from my last batch last year and they are giving me blue eggs. The roos are very pretty.

Here is one of them:

AH!!! EE = Easter Egger = Mutt! In my newbie-ness I was wondering what all these people saying "EE" were talking about. I guess EE is only a mutt where one parent is an Ameraucana?

Oh nevermind. Found the answer on the website speckledhen referenced:
"Easter Egg Chickens are not a "Standard" breed. They are mixed breeds (aka mutts or barnyard chickens) that happen to posses the gene for blue eggs. "
