I hope my question wasn't rude, but I just can't make out the shape of the body or its color on my monitor with these old eyes. If it's an Ameraucana it would have to be a wheaten, but I really can't see it well enough to even say what color it is........................ brain getting too old or just have tired eyes tonight.
No you were not rude. I am easy going. The little one is out of my Ameraucanas, the father was a wheaten/silver cross and mom is solid white.
Sorry to have to say it, but since it's a mix of three different varities, Ameraucana breeders would consider it an EE; and that's even providing it did not descend from the mongrelized stock sold by hatcheries and feed stores. If you do a little reading and research on prior posts here you will understand why I say that. Many seem to get hurt feelings when they are told they have an EE, so please don't be upset. It's important for people to learn the difference between EEs and Ameraucanas, and there are threads here at BYC for either.
