Help! I think we were given the wrong chicken

Our chick is 4 weeks now and was supposed to be a blue Orpington but as she’s has gotten older now she has feathered feet which from what I read is not typical. The store we got her from also carried Easter eggers and partridge Cochins so I am thinking she’s is one of those. Leaning towards Easter egger only because she is smaller. Any ideas??
 
Here’s some pics of her

She's super cute! :love Definitely not the blue orpington you thought you were purchasing. Sadly most stores don't know exactly what they're selling and chicks get mixed up all the time. I'm not super familiar with cochins but I do know they have feathered feet and are typically very well mannered. You said she's smaller and cochins do come in bantam, so she could possibly be a partridge bantam cochin.
