Americauna/Araucana cross

[cressalynn]

Has anyone crossed these two? Ameraucana roo to Araucana hen? Pics? Eggs color? What breed is it called? Do they breed true to egg color?

They would be Easter Eggers, and eggs would most likely be blue/blue green depending upon the purity of the parent stock.

Yes

Don’t be surprised if it lays blue eggs there’s still the possibility, but a lot of the time they lay green eggs

Results will vary depending on a few things but expect blue or green.
One factor is if you're using a true Ameraucana and not an Americana which are actually "easter eggers"

I have a BBR araucana x Lav Ameraucana, so she's an easter egger. She's all black, almost looks like a black ameraucana... Lays green.
