Is she really Ameraucana?? Pic heavy

To me she looks like she just has extreme Extended black... seen it many times... she's still in her juvenile feathers and you can't rely on juvie feathers to be exactly what adult feathers will be... donrae is correct, wait until she molts... from all your pics, everything else about her is correct for an Ameraucana, white skin, pea comb, black legs... eye color should darken to a nice bay as she matures as well, but light eyes can happen...

Just give her time... I'm betting she molts all the white out when she matures... :)


ETA: for more input from Ameraucana breeders post her pics over here...

Unless you are a looking to become a professional EE breeder , you should now know better than to call a Juvenile black ameraucana mottled... If you don't breed them, why would you be spouting off? Asking for advise, so you can learn is good... miss information is not.
 
Thank you donrae, drumstick and rayvn. She is actually my favorite. Very friendly and sweet. Her name is Georgie because she is so curious about everything I do and is the first to come running to me.

Thanks everyone for your replies. I had wondered if she still may be a bit too young but couldn't find any pics of young ones that didn't look as they would as a mature one
