Easter Eggers?

[alexa009]

I acquired 2 chicks at a feed store with one being advertised as an Ameraucana and the other that is 5 weeks younger was a mystery breed. They look to be Easter Eggers and the darker one just started laying green eggs. The pictures were taken awhile ago although they still look exactly the same. The first is 15 weeks in the pic and the other 10 weeks.

Green egg layer.

Definitely EE! Pretty ones, too!

Yep, Easter Eggers. 99% of the time feed store Ameraucanas are actually Easter Eggers.

Yep, easter eggers... and agree with what @Gray Farms said about feed store 'americana' Note the spelling, as they're usually misspelled that way and almost always indicate easter egger.

So frustrating when hatcheries that actually carry Ameraucanas, label them as "Americanas." Gives a bad reputation. Eagle Nest, our local hatchery, is highly guilty.....thankfully, I know their Wheaten "Americanas" are the real deal.
