    Three hens? Three Ameraucanas, or are they EE?

    Hello all! I have three birds that were born probably about March 12th ish, so they're about 6 weeks old now. They were sold as Americaunas, but as I bought them from a store for about $8 each I assumed they were Easter Eggers. However, now i have some questions. The two I'm sure are pullets...

    Question about Ameraucanas

    Does anyone know what would happen if I bred a silver Ameraucana hen with a brown red Ameraucana roo? Would the babies be Easter Egger looking (anything under the sun, broken kinda coloring, random) or would they be silver or brown red? I am wondering because they are my only ameraucanas at this...

    Do these chicks look like pure Ameraucana?

    Hi, I am placing an online order for some BBS Ameraucana and I’m going back to look at the pictures of their birds more closely. Can an Ameraucana expert please look at this picture and tell me if these look pure? In particular I am looking at the leg color of the splash. Thank you for any input!

    Ameraucana Genetics Clarification

    Which color Ameraucana parents would produce 50% Silver - 25% Black - 25% Splash? Would ANY pairing be able to produce this percentage of these colors? I purchased a dozen hatching eggs from someone who appears to be at least an honest seller. She has very good feedback, but that probability...

    Ameraucana and Serama Mix

    Attached are pictures of the parents and a picture of the first chick to hatch so far, it does appear to have retained the puffy cheeks of the Ameraucana. After drying, its hatched weight was 27 grams out of eggs that average around 40 grams in weight. It almost has a bluish looking color, not...

    White feet on ameraucana

    Hello, I bought this rooster as a white (ermine split) ameraucana from a local breeder however, after more research I learned ameraucanas are supposed to have slate colored legs. My rooster has white legs and bottoms of feet (and weirdly a slate colored spot on leg), does this mean he is an...

    Ameraucana or EE? cockerel or pullet?

    This is my favorite from the flock. 19 weeks old. Quick backstory. We got 10 chicks and 6 are roos. Including this one. I say its a cockerel due to his crowing. The great thing is that its not as loud as the others Im rehoming and it has a great temperament. So we are keeping him. Now is he a...

    Cockerel?

    10 weeks old. I'm thinking cockerel but I have another that has a bigger, redder comb. I know they can be tricky. Also I suck at photos. I blame the phone.

    Pop Quiz - Is this a pure Ameraucana?

    I thought we could have a little fun playing "guess the purebred...ness" err, "purity"? This pullet is Pearl, bred and hatched here from known stock. Is she a pure Ameraucana? You guess! Hone your skills, or if you don't feel like it, Pearl will accept simple flattery instead.

    Ameraucana Chick Dying

    One of my Ameraucana chicks which I got through the mail on Friday is being very dopey. I have already had one dopey chick die, but what's different about this one is that it has food in its crop and will drink water when I dip its beak in. It's just extremely weak. I'm also not quite able to...

    Lavender or Isabel Ameraucana?

    I know it is not the greatest pic, it's from my cell phone and was very cloudy out all day today. I just got this guy today, he is definitely an Ameraucana, he's got the pea comb and slate legs like my other Ameraucanas. What I'm needing to know is if he's Isabel or what? He is lavender with...
