Hen beauty contest!

In the post it says she's an EE x RIR. Must be a typo in the poll.

Probably. Though I’m wondering where OP got “Ameraucana“ from.

I thought it was spelled Amerurananrannrcana

Haven’t read the thread, so it may have been brought up, but for some reason on the poll it says Red is an Ameraucana, but she’s actually an EE. Is this an accident?

Ameraucana is the same thing as a EE.

It’s not a debate. It is fact. And one I strongly share with people who are unaware. Ameraucanas and EEs are not the same. Sadly hatcheries, dishonest breeders, and feed stores have confused people by calling their EEs “Ameraucanas,” Americana,” “Ameracauna,” etc....
