ameraucana chicks?

[kindir]

Are these purebred ameraucana chicks? Look like silver ameraucanas to me, but the beard and muffs are more prominent on some than others....

Where did you get them from? If you got them from a hatchery then no they are not pure but EE's (easter eggers) They are adorable tho either way

OH and Welcome to BYC

There are so many chicks that are similar that it's hard to judge. If you're sure they're either Ameraucana's or EE's, I'd go with definate possible Amer's due to the leg color but I'm not an expert. I'm honestly not sold that they're either.

the legs look white? I don't think there Ameraucanas at all

We have TRUE EASTER EGGERS at our home! Beautiful eggs, great friendly birds. Whatever your "breed" may be they are sweet as can be!

Until they get larger, I'm saying, EEs

They look like they are feathering in as EE's not silver Ameraucanas. I'm no expert, but I'd guess EE's. Very adorable fuzzies you have there!

I'm not sure where they came from - I bought them from someone who assured me they were purebred Ameraucanas but she didn't hatch them, she had them shipped to her (from where I have no idea). I don't really care either way since I have been contacting breeders to purchase what I *KNOW* will be purebred ameraucanas this spring, I was just curious. As others have stated, they are adorable no matter what!!!
