Black gold Ameraucana cockerels

[USMC1stSgt]

For those who raise Ameraucanas do these appear as such? The pullets (not shown here) are all solid black and these cockerels in the picture are all black gold from the same batch of hatching eggs.

Black gold is not a standard color of purebred Ameraucanas. The leakage in these is also more silver than gold. They are more likely to be Easter eggers than Ameraucanas.
