Diffences Between EEs, Ameraucanas, and Araucanas

[jeanetteiacovon]

ees tend to have green legs but can have any leg color. They also can be muff/bearded or not. Ameracanas come in only certain show-able colors, ees are a bag of skittles. 

Does anyone know if the lavender "ameracanas" are show-able yet or are they still technically ees??

ccan I have a white easter egger she has greenish feet but I was told she was a Buff Orpington

She's an Easter Egger, and a very pretty one! That's a very common color too.
You can see some photos that show the difference here:

thank you so she should lay blue eggs then. That is fine. I really wanted a Buff orpington which is why she was picked however I love this little one she seems to really like me also. I love the rest of them as well. Do you know anything about silver laced wyanadotte chicks. I am hoping I have one and that they didn't mess that one up also. I have 10 chicks, hens that I picked for the egg colors and the colors of the feathers. It seems like I may not have any breeds I chose. I have settled on 2 golden comets 2 new Hampshire reds 4 ameracanas 1 buff orpington and 1 silver wyanadotte. The buff orpington may be an ameracauna the 4 ameracanas may be easter eggers I have no idea if the 2 nhr and the gc are what they said t hey were and then my little wyanadotte. If you can help me with the standards I would be grateful. She is the little one and the youngest. I got her at one day with the egg tooth still intact. She has no feathers only down and is 3 weeks old she hatched the wed. Or Thursday befor easter. I do think she is a slow grower as the rest are bigger but then they were always bigger. She is very active and very nice but doesn't take any crap. Napoleon syndrom. LOL. But is that normal for her to not have feathers yet.

Sorry, my post was in reply to @silkiecuddles question.

Your bird looks like an EE, (deffinitly not an Orpington) Some hatchery birds are crossed with leghorn, so it's possible that's the case with your bird. Our neighbors have a couple of solid white, beardless, blue leged EE hens just like yours.

Hi everyone, sorry for the delay, I worked to get my girls a safe enclosure outside. It was way over due. Anyway these are all my chicks and they should be hens, 4 ameracaunas, 2 golden comets, 2 new Hampshire reds, 1 silver laced wyanndotte, and a Buff orpington which is showing to be an Easter egger. Any thoughts on sex and breeds? Thanks all.
