Can you breed an Easter egger rooster with easter egger hens and still label them as 'Easter Eggers'? What breeds do people typically use with Ameraucaunas to get Easter Eggers?

Yes. Most hatchery bred Easter Eggers are EE X EE.

Yes. Most hatchery bred Easter Eggers are EE X EE.

Would the offspring most likely end up laying brown eggs though?

If they are hatchery EE x EE crosses then they aren’t “most likely.”

Not necessarily.
I breed an EE rooster with EE hens and the offspring also lay blue, green, and pink eggs, no brown.
