Pick her up and look at the underside of the foot. That's where you can most easily see skin color.

You can't really see skin color by parting the feathers. You need to actually see the underside of the foot when it comes to birds with a very dark wash on the legs. Pinkish/grey/white foot bottoms mean white skin. Yellow means yellow skin. Ameraucana only have white skin. If you look at the bottoms of the feet and see yellow, you've got an Easter Egger.

This pullet looks like a Black Ameraucana in every way. I bred her, and I know that despite appearances, she does not have a drop of Ameraucana blood in her at all. She's an Easter Egger/Barred Rock cross, and the undersides of her feet are yellow.
