Can you tell what color eggs an EE will lay be their legs or earlobes?

If you want to for-sure get blue eggs I'd consider Ameraucans, Ataucanas, or Cream Crested Legbars.

I have three EEs that lay white (sadly).

Thanks for the quick replies everybody. I want to get Americaunas/Aracaunas but just assume I will be getting EE's because of how often they are incorrectly labeled in feed stores. We thought we were getting Americaunas when we got our first EE's and we ended up with green and one blue layer. I don't know any breeders who sell Americaunas/Aracaunas locally. I guess I will just get what I get and cross my fingers for blue layers.

AmerIcanas!?
The "I" is a clear sign that the birds are EE. If you want true Ameraucanas or Araucanas I'd find a breeder.
Or Cackle Hatchery has true Ameraucanas.

I'm in the same boat. You more often get EE'S. I have a few americanas now. I bough t10 at a feed store and 50% ended up EE'S. I believe the feed store ordered Americana. Can't tell the difference at that age unless they happen to not have beards and tuffs. Sad but true.
