2 weeks ago my family and i went to a breeder, and we got an ameraucana chick, i am new to this breed and would like help as to what color and gender my ameraucana chick is. Any imput will help! Thanks!

Here is our Ameraucana:




"She" is 4.5 weeks old.

thank you SO much! I was hoping she was a pullet! I love her to peices and i wouldnt want to give her up!

Wheaten, Blue wheaten and buff amers start out with pink legs and they turn slate as they mature.
Yours looks like a blue wheaten to me since she is so light. Definitly female since males would have a lot more solid black/dark blue feathers at that age.

Maybe a pullet. Ask us again in 4 weeks.

the legs dont appear to be the right color for an ameraucana, they should be slate colored
