What breeds are they?

Not all of them.
Easter Eggers

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.

They are just pretty much mixed breeds that lay colored eggs

Ameraucana, which lays colored eggs and has muffs and a beard, not ear tufts, and comes in standardized color varieties. The Ameraucana also comes in a bantam form.

Ameraucanas and EE's are different. EE's are Ameraucanas, but Ameraucanas are not EE's. EE's have Ameraucana blood usually, but not always the beards at the muffs.
