Hilaree- The splash ameraucana is a very light blue. She ( ) will eventually be a light blue with darker blue splotches all over her. She is from a blue ameraucana rooster (blue egg gene) and a blue ameraucana hen (blue egg layer). She will lay a blue egg and is a pure ameraucana.
The blue Easter Egger is actually darker than she looks in that picture. She is the offspring of a blue ameraucana rooster (blue egg gene) and a white Easter Egger hen (green egg layer). She will lay a greenish blue egg and is essentially a mutt.
The blue EE will likely look a lot like a blue ameraucana, but she'll have parts of her that don't fit the standard of perfection.
Does that help?
thanks!

Hens go broody when you don’t want them to… and won’t go broody when you do.
