    Diffences Between EEs, Ameraucanas, and Araucanas

    Pretty hen! If the legs have a green cast the pads of the feet are probably yellow which would indicate yellow skin, not white and thus a cross. She's got alot of purebred Ameraucana traits though so so you have a pretty good chance of blue eggs in a few weeks.

    When is an Ameraucana not an Ameraucana? Having a bird that "looks like an APA color Ameraucana" does not make it thus. To meet the Breed Standard set forth in 1984 for the Ameraucana the bird must have the following: COMB: Pea. BEAK: Curved, horn colored NOT yellow. FACE: Nearly hidden...

    Differences EE, Ameraucana, & Araucana * Pls post pics*

    Araucana have a gene that will make the chicks die before they are hatched. The goal of a hatchery is to make money. These two dont mesh. There are some hatcheries that sell purebred Ameraucanas,(as opposed to the mixed breed Ameraucanas they all sell) but you have to keep in mind this is...
