I have a hen labeled as an Olive Egger that looks just like this! She lays peach colored eggs 😂

Does your suspect have the sickle tail feathers coming in?
 
Cockerel and not an ameraucana, he's an ameraucana based easter egger. Tractor supply gets their chicks from Hoover's and Hoover's doesn't sell true ameraucanas. Regardless easter eggers are still great birds and your boy is pretty :D
Shame about his attitude though
 
His attitude is better now that he’s alone with a couple girls.

I know about tractor supply believe me. These poor chicks were all alone in a NASTY bin with a light aimed at two different bins so they were cold and crying! My heart couldn’t leave them. In my hands he’s super super sweet but with the other young cockerels I’ve raised this year (phoenix and Sumatra) he just likes to spar a bit too much. He’s much happier now that he’s alone with two girls! Thanks for your input I truly believe he is a he!
