Alright, I newish to the chicken world.
I'm confused about a couple of things.
The Araucana is the bird with the ear tufts, from south america.Noted for laying blue eggs. Right?
The Ameraucana is a seperate breed than the Araucana, but derives from it. Also lays blue/green eggs. Right?
So, are both of these breeds considered EE's? Or is an EE just a mutt breed that happens to lay blue green eggs?
From pictures I have seen, I can clearly tell the araucana, but Ameraucanas and EE's look exactly the same.
Please help clerify all this fro me!
