these chickens are about 9 weeks old. i get confused with all the different pics and info out there.
2 are wyandottes , 2 rhode island reds and 1 ameraucana.

You don't have an Ameraucana, you have an Easter Egger. The only one that makes me think it might be a boy is the wyandotte at the top of the first photo. You RIRs and your Easter Egger, and the other Wyandotte are pullets.

They all look like females to me.

Thank you. What is difference between Easter egged and ameracuana. They were supposed to be but doesn't really matter to me.

Usually the main difference is feather coloration, foot color, and egg color. Ameraucanas are only available in a handful of colors. Easter Eggers can be any color and pattern combination. Ameraucana have slate or white foot bottoms, Easter Eggers usually have yellow foot bottoms. Ameraucana only lay blue eggs. An Easter Egger might lay blue, or green, or brown.

Your birds are all looking like pullets to me.

I would call that an ameraucana, just not a standard color. Easter eggers are just blue egg layers crossed with anything. Typically lay more of a green egg.

With all due respect, any Ameraucana that does not fit a recognized, standard color is not an Ameraucana. Color is a characteristic of a breed and variety. If a "breed" does not have the correct color, it really can't be considered that breed. True purebred Ameraucanas must not only fit a recognized color pattern, but must also have blue slate legs (instead of the more common willow green found in most hatchery "Ameraucanas"), a beard, muffs, and lay blue eggs. While this bird may have a beard and muffs and could lay blue eggs in its future, it has neither the correct color pattern nor the blue legs of an Ameraucana. It will be a lovely, colored egg-laying chicken, but isn't an Ameraucana.
