I advertised my two cockerels with full disclaimer that they were "projects" and even linked the byc thread about the project. The people that took them were very excited and I made sure they understood. I agree that there is a great deal of misunderstanding about what is/isn't an Ameraucana vs. project vs. EE. Every ad I saw with photos on our local CL listing Ameraucanas were obvious EEs.I agree. Culls are what a deep freezer is for.
I also believe one should fully disclose, to the best of their knowledge, whether or not their birds carry what others may consider ‘undesirable’ genes or traits.
Because when push comes to shove, no one is responsible for the quality of birds you have, breed, or sell... except for YOU.

Those are EE's. Most hatcheries will get you by adding that 'i' instead of the true breed spelling Ameraucana. You will also see a lot of Auracana/Ameriacana for hatchery EE's. They are still great chickens just not a true breed!My chickens posted above are they Americaunas? Or EEs? The hatchery I bought them from called them Americaunas.

[SIZE=15.555556297302246px]Most EE's lay mint green eggs, so far I haven't seen any that lay pink. I did have a lovely Buff Orp that layed pink eggs but we lost her in an attack. I have several EE's and I love them. I love my Ameraucana too, although they are harder to find and more expensive. Enjoy them, BTW you profil pic is cute [/SIZE]
