Americauna, or Easter eggers?

[Steve J]

Bought these as chicks from the local farm supply store. They were sold as "Americauna" after reading more about the breed, I discovered most are Easter eggers. Does anyone know ?
The closest one is tame, the other a bit crazy and not very tame. She seems a bit unstable even as she'll often just take off running around really fast, no apparent reason. Raised 5 all together, these two and a Buff Orpington, along with 2 barred rocks.

They were bought April 23th, as chicks. The Buff is tame, the one Easter egger is and one Barred Rock is also very tame. The other Easter Egger and one Barred Rock is not very tame, they aren't really afraid of me they just won't let you pick them up. I think the one Barred Rock is the very tamest, she likes to be held and makes a soft little sound when I stroke her feathers. Chickens are a heck of a lot more interesting than I thought they'd be and I know now I'll never be without some.If anything I'll probably expand!
Here's my little cheap coop, I kept them in until I built the run. I still lock them in it at night though. Haven't had any predators bother them yet, but I used two sides of my 2 acre dog pen, covered in chicken wire, for it. My 6 dogs did not bother them at all, even though my shepherd mix hates any large flying bird, he ignores the chickens. I thought I'd have a problem with him barking at the chicks, but no he's smart knows they're mine. A big black and tan coonhound is the nose of the pack and alerts very fast on anything that comes around. So hopefully I won't lose any of them.

I was sold 2 that look just like those and 1 white one that we're americanas and I was later told they are easter eggers. Actually the we were told the white one was a leghorn and I quickly realized it was very different from the leghorn.

Here's the tamest Easter egger, sitting on my hand.
