Is she an Americana or EE?

Hi there, welcome to BYC!

I copied your image. Your bird is a beautiful Easter Egger indeed... but (as an Ameraucana breeder) greenish shades of blue are still considered blue according to the Standard of Perfection! (I personally will take darker over the almost white ones)

Some hatcheries may be breeding (originally) pure Ameraucana but NOT conforming to the standard of perfection, not selecting for feather pattern, and not for show. Most feed stores don't communicate this properly as they don't care to educate themselves about the subject, they just sell products. Some hatcheries even claim it's "to show the array of colors one breed can possess." As if that's not what their many varieties are already doing. That hatcheries that DO sell real Ameraucana (cackle is one) will ALWAYS list their color variety... like blue, black, Lavender, white... etc.

That's one of the most lovely eggs I've seen. If it's her first, expect shade to possibly fade some as the reproductive system matures and steadies. Congrats on your beauty coming into lay!
