Can someone help me with color Identification?

[MastrangeloFamily]

What coloring does my Ameraucana Cockerel have? Is he a true Ameraucana? And what can I expect in using him to breed? As in will he have any impact over egg coloring?

@EmmaRainboe knows quite a lot about EEs and Ameraucanas

Depends if he is O/o o/o or O/O. I would guess he's either O/o or O/O He will have an inpact, but what the impact is will depends on his genes. His offspring will get half of his genes and half their mother's genes.

I think EEs have green legs and Ameraucanas have grey-ish legs?

He’s splash with red leakage. You can tell he’s an Easter egger mainly because his coloration is mixed, so it’s not a recognized variety. You can expect all of his offspring to have some blue or splash feathers. They will likely have red feathers as well.

Ameraucanas have slate (blue) legs.
