Yes, you have all EEs. Since EEs are nothing more than mutts that carry the blue egg gene, they can look like almost anything--although they usually have pea combs. It's entirely possible if uncommon to have some that have no beards, but if they don't have pea combs then they probably won't lay blue or green eggs.

Since it has feathers on its legs and came from a hatchery I would say silkie. Hatcheries are not known for show quality or for being even near SOP for a breed. They turn out as many as fast as they can, so sometimes breed characteristics get lost (like silkies having a single comb or no feathers on the feet )
