Are these two Easter Eggers or Ameracaunas?

Easter Eggers. They don't match up with any recognized or unrecognized true Ameraucana color variety, which is the main giveaway.

Agree with Alexandra. Those are really pretty Easter eggers. Beautiful colors.

EE but they are beautiful!

Very pretty EE pullets.

Oh so pretty, the little ear puff muffs indicate the Aracauna gene. but I'm no expert. My hens must be Easter Eggers because they lay blue eggs, but they don't have such big ear puffs, they look like normal chickens.

Adorable EE’s!!

Really nice easter egger pullets. The yellow legs and not matching a recognized variety are why. They probably have a lot of ameraucana in them.

@DebLou
They are not at all Aracanas. Aracanas have crazy giant feathers cheeks that look like mustaches. Like this.

They are very different looks.
These have the same muffs/beards as an ameraucana but missing a lot of key traits/colors. Still, excellent looking birds, really nice, probably from a great source.

They are 24 weeks old, still waiting for that first egg, hope it is more blue than green!
