Here is my younger group of EE's...I hatched them out myself, they are just under 3 weeks old now.  They were sold as blue ameracaunas, of course I knew they were just EE's and that was fine with me. 

Don't know sexes yet...but see more that are developing combs than I'd like...

Several are all white so far - not sure if they will get some coloring in later or not. I didn't get any good pics of the white ones.

 

Starting to get blue on the head/neck area

This one looks a lot more blue in pics than in person!

This one is not looking blue at all yet...but maybe it will surprise me?? Probably not - but that's okay! LOL

I see two cockerels and a pullet. Pretty birds though.

I'm looking to swap Coturnix eggs for turkey eggs.

I got a couple of surprise hatches.  I have a very mixed genetics flock but not sure if I have any actually EE.  None that really look like it. The closest ones I have are a few Faverolle hens and one Ameraucana roo.  Here are my new babies:

What do you think?  EEs, Ameraucana or ????

They can't be Ameraucana. Their rules are too strict. 

 

Leg color is wrong.

Both parents have to come from breeders and be Ameraucana

Have to fit one of the recognized color patterns.

 

Beautiful looking chicks.

 

I have three Ameraucana x SG Dorking chicks and I can't wait to see what they lay.

Has anyone ever bred a White Ameracauna female to a Wheaten Ameracauna male? If  you have do you have pictures of the offspring. Our 2 Ameracauna chicks we have are likely this cross. One I know is a roo based on comb development, the other I am pretty sure is a pullet. Both were pure white when we got them and still seem to be keeping that white color. I figure they will get some more color to them at some point I am just not sure what they will look like when they are grown. Anyone have examples of this cross they could share pictures of?

I have pictures of my EEs. Chipmonk is a traditional EE and I guess Duckwing based. The other three were Dorking Ameraucana crosses that were sent by mistake. I hope my gain.
