Ameraucanas, 7.5 weeks old (gender help)

[cleoppa]

I posted a few weeks ago and the gender of the Ameraucanas was unclear. So... round two.

The first of the three is Freda. She is generally acknowledged to be female.







Then we have Ilsa, who may be female:




And Boaz, who may be male:






Thank you!

All pullets, roos won't be that color.

 

[cleoppa]

Yeah! Thanks.

So... are they Ameraucanas or Easter Eggers? I bought them as Ameraucanas. I think the feed store I got them from gets them from Ideal.

If you got them from a feed store they're easter eggers. Hatchery birds don't meet the breed standard, ever. They breed for colored eggs, don't care about the rest of the breed standard.

What color will the roos be?

Thanks Tracy

The roo's would have different color patterns- usually a random mix of different colors with red on the wings. Another common roo color is the black and white pattern, but females can be that color as well.
