Is he an Easter Egger?

[LittleFarmInWV]

This beautiful boy is a real sweetie and a lap chicken. Just wondering if anyone knew what breed he was. He was a Murray McMurray "rare" chick that is now 24 weeks old. I have been calling him an Easter Egger but some people have said he is a Hamburg or Ameraucana. I know people say true Ameraucanas aren't available from the hatcheries so just wanting to see what everyone thinks he is.
Thanks!

Your information was correct: you cannot get Ameraucanas from hatcheries yet. Hopefully someday hatcheries will label their stock correctly so as not to confuse people. You have yourself a very pretty EE boy

Here is another shot of him.

Thank you! That's what I thought. I have 3 Easter Egger girls laying blue eggs and wanted to hatch some chicks but wanted to know for sure before I hatched any He is the best free chicken I've ever had

My EE rooster is the dominant rooster in the flock. He's wonderful with the ladies and respectful of me. And as gorgeous as is yours. Mine is also a TALL rooster - very manly, but with a soft nature, especially with his favorite hen. They groom each other, dust bathe together, and he doesn't mind if she refuses his Wing Dance Advances. (He just finds a willing hen.. But loves her the most. She is always on the roost next to him at night.)
