nope, she's completly white, and her wings came in all white (she's just two weeks) fluffy and poufy with muffs and beard, green legs too.

You have an easter egger. White ameraucanas have slate (blue) legs.

nope, just double-checked, they're greenish. so are the three chipmunks (silvers?)
thankx, i was thinking she was ee, but i did find the website and saw there are white ones. although she looks like a wheaten cause the whites are yellowish as chicks. and my 3 year old hen was a chipmunk but looks wheaten now. does that make sense?

what's the website?
i know i didn't get araucaunas from mm but i was wondering if i got ameraucaunas, one is all white though, i didn't think that was a reconized color. she's very friendly though. the others are standard chipmunk.

The "Ameraucana" pullet I just brought home is suspiciously Easter Eggerly. Her legs and feet are Shrek green. So, I named her Fiona.

I don't mind-I hope her eggs are as green as her feet!

I did notice however, that everyone in this string is spelling Ameraucana differently. What is the correct spelling??

Ameraucana

And the rumpless ones are Araucana

I spelled it wrong... *headdesk* Guess that's what I get for posting so late at night. I know how to spell it. I'll go crawl in a hole and beat my head against a wall now.

Ameraucana...duh

*practices* Ameraucana, Ameraucana, Ameraucana

See...all it takes is me thinking about it and I can type it.

 

[Chickndaddy]

I spelled Araucana wrong too! No freakin' way.

I'm really quite mortified now...

So what about the Picture of the Week? Is that really an Ameraucana? It's a beautiful bird, but it doesn't look to me as if it conforms to any of the colors that I think are accepted for Ameraucanas....

What do you all think?
