    Wheatens arent slate at hatch unlike most blue, black and lavs. I try to keep the ones who turn slate the youngest and those are always the darkest. BBS and lavs have an E alelle which complicates matters - makes the shanks black unrelated to the slate sex linked gene so I wouldnt try to use...

    If you use a purebred ameraucana rooster (not an EE), you will NOT have yellow skin and the chicks will be sex linked - pullets have slate shanks (right in pic)and cockerels have white (left in pic). They have white feathers with varying spots if a white LH hen was used. .

    Silver Ameraucanas

    I dont know what an americano is...americana is a made up name designed to confuse the uniformed buying public and ameraucana is a breed. Your chick looks like a cute mix - might be an Easter egger (mix) - they often have green legs - ameraucana never do
