Muffs are noticeable as soon a chick is dried off. Those fluffy cheeks are hard to miss. I think your bird is clean faced, and that's one reason why Lavender Ameraucanas are still in the 'project' phase. Breeders are still working on things.

I agree that the bird in question is clean faced and that makes it an Easter Egger rather than a true Ameraucana. The standards for true Ameraucanas are among the toughest of any breed and include beards and muffs (http://www.ameraucana.org/standard.html) and the Ameraucana Breeders Club considers any bird that fails to meet all of those standards to be an Easter Egger rather than a true Ameraucana.
