8 week old Ameraucana, weird hen or rooster?

[CosmoTheRooster]

I really like these marans, I sure hope they are worth giving up my favorite birds in the flock.

Oh, and I'd like to add I'm surprised that nobody pointed out that Lucille isn't an Ameraucana. Easter Eggers are commonly mistook for Ameraucanas. There are color limits for what Ameraucanas can be... i.e. anything out of color range is usually an Easter Egger. Here's a helpful site with all the color varieties of a true Ameraucana, and pictures too:

Thanks for all you guys' help, and that was my suspicion about her being an EE.

I decided to name him Mr. Lucille, he is a personality. Turned out to be my favorite rooster. I thought I would show you guys what he turned out to be.

I present you.....Mr. Lucille, the "Barnyard Boss"

Thanks for the update--he's a handsome guy!

I had an ee rooster named Bette for years and years......yep, Bette the rooster. Deal with it!

People bother me about his name all the time, but hey, it makes him even more unique.

Totally a Rooster! I think Speckles would be a good name for him!!

Haha! His name is already set in stone, being the "Barnyard Boss". Mr. Lucille and his big friend Cosmo wake the neighborhood up every morning.
