Is she a Silver Ameraucana?

[The Lisser]

I got this pullet from a friend who paired her off-color silver Ameraucana rooster with a brown/gray Easter Egger hen. As far as I can tell, this pullet looks like a Silver Ameraucana. Could I use her in breeding silver Ameraucanas? The mom lays nice blue eggs.

If one of her parents is an easter egger then no she is not an ameraucana.

I wouldn't use her to breed because she is still carrying the genes the ee mother had.

She's lovely! But you have to have a silver Am roo X silver Am pullet/hen to get a true silver Am. I bet she's gonna lay some beautiful eggs

Thanks, pips&peeps and DFCottage. She will make some lovely EE babies, then.
