I have a black Ameraucana rooster. My hens are leghorn, RIR, and RIR/leghorn cross. Breeding my rooster with any of these hens should produce EEs, correct? A variety of blue/green eggs? I’m considering selling the chicks and want to make sure I have my info correct. Thanks!

I believe he is a true Ameraucana. I purchased 4 straight run “Ameracuana” chicks from TS last year and they all look identical. Black feathers (no variations), pea combs, muffs.
 
If he’s a true ameraucana and has two copies of the blue egg shell gene, all his offspring will lay blue or green eggs.
Thanks! That’s what I wanted to know. Assuming he is true Ameraucana. I understand if he’s not that the genes won’t line up the same way.
