Sorry about the fuzzy picture

#3 I only got one picture of this one. I think #3 and #1 are EE I was looking for Araucana's But these two look more Ameraucana or EE to me. What do you think.

Some of the folks (like me) that are saying that the EEs are roos may be sayin' that because mixed breed roos frequently have a red leakage on their wings. This is where some red colored feathers show up on an otherwise solid light-colored wing. These guys both look like they have red colored feathers on their wings=roo.
