What breed is this? I guess it is a Americana/EE of somewhat?

I posted pictures of her when i first got her, but there were mixed opinions. Now she is older, does anybody have an idea what breed she is? Thanks and God Bless!

hahaha, I got a same-looking bird out of the EE bin at my local TSC here in Indiana...I believe mine is a Dark Cornish:



at 10 weeks:


The legs on yours do appear to be green though

I found Silver Laced Wyndotte to be exact like her when she was a chick, but now i know that isn't the case. i am wondering if she was crossed with something else or a game bird. i have searched and search for chickens like her. Like what you said, she does look like yours (more than i have seen so far). my wife bought her for me for easter. i do know for sure it is a hen and a bantam.

are there different EE breeds? i don't know if she is a specific EE line of breed. my wife bought it at tsc

I'm sticking with what I think...the green legs are making it a possible EE mix, but I think it is a dark cornish....if your TSC gets its chicks from the same place mine did, be aware they mixed their chicks up badly. I also got a Silver Duckwing OEG out of the same EE bin. Can you repost pics of her as a chick?

"The Easter Egger is not really a breed. They are relationed to the breeds Ameraucanas and Araucanas, then bred with many different breeds so they no longer fit either breed's standards. They usually have muffs & pea combs, but come in nearly every variety and color, some even have ear tufts or are rumpless. Each EE is different, but overall they are usually a smaller bird that lays pink, green, or blue eggs. They are normally friendly and calm, and their colorful eggs make them a popular choice in backyard flocks." Your chicken looks l;ike it has Golden laced wyandotte

my wife bought her, so i didn't get to ask or check out what possible breed she is.

Ah...that is DEFINITELY an EE, beautiful little cheek muffs....she will start growing those back in about week 9. She is an extremely pretty pullet, I'm jealous.

thank you for educating me on that. i didn't know EE wasn't a type of breed. she differently has a muff, pea comb, and has greenish/black legs.
