First pic is a cockerel. Need a full body view of the last bird.

Actually McMurray only uses Easter Egger parent stock to produce Easter Egger (mongrel) chicks.  McMurray doesn't have Standard Ameraucanas or Araucanas.
Cackle Hatchery has and sells both Ameraucanas and Easter Eggers.

I will have to check out Cackle Hatchery.

You would be better off checking the Ameraucana Breeders Club. You might find a breeder in your state.

Hi m new here I live in Dubai and soon will be moving to ontario. I love animals especially birds, where I live I could keep any kind of animals bcz of the weather conditions especially no snow . I am thinking to grow birds for living but m not sure how to keep them safe especially in winter. Is it recomendable to keep chicken and other birds for living, if not could someone guide me with other options. Hope to hear back from you soon. New joiner Fajis

Fajis, here's a site below on winter temperatures & coops, also type in Canada in the search drop down after you click on the "3 lines" box at top of every BYC page (next to the Members box). Ha! wow, now I'm confused after reading what I just typed, hope you can make some sense of it. Best wishes on your move.

I recently acquired what the well respected NPIP breeder told me was a purebred Buff Ameracauna pullet. She’s about 12 weeks old. It was only after reading up on Ameracaunas on BYC that I learned that she should have dark slate legs. Instead she has what I would describe as pale blue legs - almost like the color someone’s skin turns when they’re cold. Her legs definitely aren’t white or yellow in any way - just this pale blue color. Is this an acceptable Ameracauna leg color?
