Easter eggers dont have muffs or beards, plus i think amarucanas lay blue eggs! My black sex link rizo is ALWAYS photobombing!
also sense EE’s are mixes, they could have small muffs and or beards, but its not the same, and usually rare and faint.

Wait, does that mean I actually have Amercaunas and not EEs??? They are laying blue-green(ish) eggs. Mine definitely have the beards or muffs.

No, i think their EEs can i see the comb types? Amarucanas have peas and easter eggers have USUALLY a rose, not always!

also whats the lay color?

No, the person who said that Easter eggers do not have beards and muffs is incorrect. They do have muffs & beards most of the time. They are just multicolored unlike purebred Ameraucana which are very specific colors. . Beautiful Easter Eggers you have! I personally love birds with ear muffs & beards.

Those are very pretty Easter Eggers or sometimes called Americana (different spelling). EEs are simply a cross that lays a colored egg and many times EEs are a cross of an Ameraucana and another breed of any kind. EEs most often look similar to Ameraucanas but might lay a different colored egg besides blue, and their coloring is usually more patterned like yours! I often find EEs prettier because of all their unique patterns and colors! They can have muffs, beards and pea combs, but they can also have no muffs or beards and other kinds of combs besides a pea comb. Also their legs are usually more of a green color while true Ameraucanas have slate gray leg colors. Your EEs are darling!
