This is Summer. She was a mystery chick randomly chosen from an unlabeled bin. I have been wondering from day 1 what she is. Photos attached are in order from oldest photos to most recent. I've been told:

Easter Egger. I have four other Easter eggers and she looks absolutely nothing like them. No greenish legs, no muffs, totally different shape and colors. If you think she's an Easter egger and you also have one like her could you post a photo? Nowhere can I find a photo of one just like her.

I've also had the following mentioned: brown leghorn, welsummer, Rhode island red (certain she isn't this one)

She could be a Pearl star leghorn. They’re a sussex and leghorn hybrid. Or she could be some type of Easter egger, such as a starlight green egger, which have a lot of leghorn in them.

Starlight green Egger
 
I agree, she looks like one of the 'egger' mixes; which is a hatchery mixed recipe that can lay colored eggs...making them easter eggers.
the thing about easter eggers is they aren't a breed. They're a mix. They can have any comb type, muffs and beard (or not), Crests (or not), any color leg.... Any pattern on the feathers...
 
She looks a lot like one of mine that was sold to me as an Easter Egger. I got two and they were almost identical when they were little - difficult to tell them apart. Now they look very different from each other. The one that looks like yours does not have green legs (the other one does). I’ve been calling her Lucy, because of the red.

The photos didn’t load in the right order, but the second one is the two EEs when I first got them. I’m not sure which is which in that photo. The first photo is Lucy a little bit older, then the third photo, and the last one is the most recent.
