Ameraucana adult color?

Do you have some Ameraucana that lay a true blue egg? I may have to put you on my list of people to get birds/hatching eggs from. I don't show my birds, and only really care about egg color. So far, my Ameraucana have been quite disappointing compared to my EEs.
I only have a few hens right now and one or two lay blue eggs. But I have some young blues, blacks, and splashes that are growing fast that I am going to breed once they get old enough. Right now I am not selling any birds or eggs. But next year if everything goes as planned, no unexpected suprises lol, I should. Do you go to the show in lebanon, IN. I dont know if I will be taking any to sell this year but should be next year. I saw your location was ohio so I thought you might go to it.
 
I know there's no telling what her color will be when she's full grown. But will she keep her puffy cheeks when she's older since she has puffy cheeks now?

Yes, I have never had a chick loss their beard fluff, unless it got pulled out but the beard will usually grow back if that happens.

I have an Easter Egger that lays a beautiful blue egg, but I know your looking for Ameraucanas. She could me an Ameraucana though, because she has most of those traits.
 
OH. Sorry, I am kinda new to the whole chicken thing. What does an Ameraucana look like compared to an Easter Egger? I know that EE's aren't pure breeds, but how do they look different?
No need to be sorry just thought I would tell you. Instead of my explaining it all and posting pictures, you can get on this website www.ameraucana.org the ameraucana breeders website. It has pics, the standard, has a defitnion of what an EE is, explains the history of them and more.
 
I had a chick very similar, (in fact my 6yo named her chipmunk) and she became a beautiful red/gold/brown hen. We just got her first egg (unfortunately tan) and I am hoping for the other to be colorful. We got both from a feed store calling them Ameraucanas, but clearly they are EE. Still very pretty. The smaller one is really flighty and I have a really hard time catching her. The larger, more colorful one (Chipmunk) is much more friendly, especially since she matured. (Chipmunk is the one looking at the camera) She has wonderful gold and brown markings, similar to a pheasant.
