I doubt they have Ameraucana in them. Silver Ameraucana are one of the rarest varieties. More likely they are just silver partridge 'pure' Easter Egger. Beaks are yellowish, and the legs are green, with yellow showing through. Ameraucana have white skin, and it's a dominant trait.

I understand that, but until you get something that is breeding consistently, it's an Easter Egger. And 'wild-type' partridge birds do not breed true. They have so much going on, genetically, that it's kind of impossible to get them to breed true. The bird I'm questioning looks just like many...
Please explain to me how a bird that is not a recognized color/variety is an Ameraucana? She looks like a wild-type partridge, and as such, won't breed true.
Sorry. It's something that is happening all over this site, the intentional misspelling being pushed by a few people as a replacement for the term Easter Egger... Kind of drives me crazy when people who know better, perpetuate the confusion.
