Too early to sex. However they are not Ameraucanas, lavender or blue. They are Easter Eggers.

Yeah, I figured they were EEs... Except I got them from a breeder who said they were Amerucaunas. I'm pretty new to the chicken game and I'm sure this is an extremely common question, but how do you know the difference?

Easter Eggers are cross breeds that lay blue or green eggs or Ameraucanas that are not a reconized color. Your chicks are already showing the typical Easter Egger pattern. (Not my pictures)

They are Easter Eggers. As for gender, it is too young to tell. I'd post some new photos when they're at least 6 weeks old.
