This is an “Americana” which is apparently not an ameraucana but more like an Easter egger. Opinions on her color and what she would look like in a genetic calculator? She looks a lot like a silver ameraucana but an edge of red around her feathers.

This little guy is the chick of the hen above and a barred rooster who has some gold leakage. Almost certain this guy also has gold leakage. Does anyone have any ideas about how white his chest patterning is? Maybe he’s got some pencilling or something?

Does this guy look like a single barred crele to you guys or a single barred with gold leakage? I know his hackles don’t look that gold but they are very gold in actually good lighting.

Does this girl look like a crele to anyone? (Hen in the front)

Americana is another name for Easter egger. This one has mixed coloring, but from a purely superficial standpoint her color is more like a gold duckwing female than a silver female.

The barred one just has messy barring, which happens when you mix barred chickens with birds with other color patterns. I wouldn't say he is pencilled.

The rooster is single barred with gold leakage, not crele.

The last hen is also not crele. She may have the barring gene but she doesn't follow the crele color pattern.
