It was a feed store. They ordered from the hatcheries.
And they sell EE as well

It was labeled as ameraucana
Not americana

Then that is dishonest, I’m sorry.

I have a couple “Ameraucanas” too. The hatcheries have disclaimers/explanations on their websites sometimes but this is a pet peeve of mine as well.

I agree with the others. She's looking like a pullet so far.

As for the color change question, its pretty common for a chick to start out one color and look completely different when they start to feather out. White chickens often start out yellow. Brown chipmunk coloring is common EE chick color but they'll look different as they grow.

But this was not chipmunk like.
She was all brown. I have been keeping chickens along time.
This one just stumped me.
