Is this an Ameraucana?

I'm not sure, but that is not the right color for blue wheaten in Ameraucanas. It's much paler, like wheaten OEGBs.

Yep. I haven't found any mainstream hatcheries that sell blue wheaten, if I had, I wouldn't have lavender and white, haha. Cackle is the only one I've found that sells more than BBS, and they don't have BBS wheaten.

Oh, I'm aware of what the color looks like. She's just Blue Wheaton-esque and only because she's got blue and brown. She certainly wouldn't be genetically pure for that color.

I got this hen back in July as a chick from a feed store claiming she's an Ameraucana. I don't know anything about differentiating Easter Eggers from Ameraucanas. She lays blue eggs, not green. She has slate colored legs, as you can see in the picture.
Regardless of breed, what color is she? I can't find a color title that would fit her.
I've included a picture of her as a couple day old chick.

She kinda looks likes my three Amricanas that r different even tho I basically call them easter eggers, but I technically have two hens cause one turned out to be a rooster, so yeah .
She's very pretty, how old is she??

Thank you everyone! Doesn't really matter to me which one she is, I was just curious. She came with another hen (who passed away from Sour Crop/Impacted Crop). I assume she was also an Easter Egger?

That's awesome! Her name was Trouble, I really loved her color (and personality) so she was a tough one to lose

How many chickens do you have?


She just turned a year old last month, in the picture she around 7 months old. I agree, her coloring is pretty! She's probably the least friendly of my chickens though lol

I have 27 (three roosters right now), but 24 hens.
Haha

Haha

Do the roosters live with the hens? Do the roosters get along with each other?
The reason I'm asking is because I also have 3 roosters (two 6 week old ones) and a similar amount of hens, I don't know how well that ratio works yet

The third picture is clearly the silver legs. It can be an Ameraucana even if the colors are non-standard.
