Is it possible????

[gabby3535]

Just wondering........is it possible for a 'true' Ameraucana, (with blue legs,) to lay light brown eggs??????
I have 2 true Ameraucanas.............one I got in May '09......as a young pullet (4-5 weeks old), and another
I got in August, as a 4-5 week old.
They are in a mixed flock of 8.............and I have not yet gotten a blue or blue/green egg.
I haven't witnessed 'anyone' actually laying an egg...............not the Sussex, or Golden Comet, or Marans, or the EE......
let alone the Ameraucanas. But all I find in the nest boxes are chocolate brown (Marans), brown and light brown eggs.

Is it possible the Ameraucanas are not laying yet? (1 of them is 8 months old, and the other is probably 5 1/2 months old)
Or is it also possible they are not laying blue, blue/green eggs?
Could they be laying 'non-blue' eggs?
Or is it possible they will never lay an egg at all???????

It is definitely possible. EEs are truly mutts.

These are NOT EE's..............but true Ameraucanas.
(I have 1 EE and 2 true Ameraucanas.......from breeder)

I don't know about Ameracaunas, but some EEs do lay pink eggs and have blue legs.... The 5 month old is probably not laying yet?

Right here: https://www.backyardchickens.com/breeds/ameraucanas.html it says they can lay brown.
