What is in Cinnamon

[JustCallMeMaple]

So from what I got she is a female EE but I'm just curious not only is that right but what the heck breeds makes this bird up as she would look like some native feral bird and blend into the environment come fall.

Any ideas on what makes up this unique pattern?
Edit addition: About 8.5wks old here.

With EEs, it can literally be anything, especially if she's EExEE

She has the camo pattern down and when she's in the bedding just right it blends so well. The colors fascinate me with how much variation is on a single feather.

This is the only one that has some type of saddle feather growing on their back it made me think possibly slow to mature rooster or certain breeds with saddle feathers on the hens.

I get that occasionally with my pheonixes (they throw weird things they shouldn't though) and I have a male naked neck that has it. But his father had the pattern too and he came from a hatchery so I have no clue

I just looked up phoenix chickens and she looks so much like a silver phoenix so it's at least a start on possible mix.

I 100% am loving the way she holds her tail though
Edit: She pricks it very upright and talks to me sweetly for loving it's adorable.

Pheonixes are supposed to hold their tail like that because it allows the feathers to be closer to the ground and make a trail instead of a sudden stop

It's a pretty breed. I look at eggs and meat as a factor but who can resist the russian roulette chicks, I'm loving the color changes as they grow. I've spend my time with adults and raising them up has been the best experience. I didn't even mind how messy they are as babies. Babies are so messy, bedding in food, bedding in water bedding everywhere.

Is it bad I keep telling Cinnamon to turn into a rooster at this point? I'm so pullet heavy with straight run grabs it's a bit exasperating. I figured at least one will be a male but now I'm just flapping in a female flock.
