Is this an Ameraucana?

Guaranteed it's an Easter Egger. Ameraucana come in black, blue, splash, white, buff, and lavender/self blue. The ONLY hatchery that sells them is Cackle Hatchery. All others are Easter Eggers. I have 4 varieties from Cackle and love them, they are truly beautiful and expensive. I don't show and don't care, yet these varieties I have are very nice looking too. And that chick looks like a cockerel.

I'd like to add that there is a thread on here somewhere telling the differences between Easter Eggers, Ameraucana's, and Araucana's. All the EE's I used to have were colorful, beautiful, and laid eggs of all shades of green.

Mmmm Splash isn't recognized and you missed Wheaten, Blue Wheaten, Silver, and Brown Red...

LOL Araucana are more expensive!!! And I've been bitten by their bug!

Oh, I've been bitten long ago! But EE's are the closest I can get for now. I do love my EE's. My flock is fairly secure, but I'm afraid it would be just my luck that it would be the expensive one that would fall prey to a raccoon .... But one day I just may get brave! They are SOOO pretty, and so are the eggs! And then there is the Barnevelder... sigh!

I understand you there. I recently lost over half my flock to a weasel. Including two araucana cockerels I'd just purchased.

I lost half my flock earlier this year to foxes but all of my barnevelder and almost all my Easter egger survived. I lost all my wyandottes though
