Is this an EE?

[GAchick]

I have 8 EE's. One is pure white, the others are various shades of gold/brown/black. All have green legs.

ETA: Some have beards, and earmuffs, some do not.

Not all EEs have green legs. I have two with slate colored legs.

NONE of these chicks have slate legs. Here are more pictures. You can't see the legs very well, though. :

So are Americaunas Easter Eggers? Or not? OR is it impossible to tell?

Yes, there EE's, not all ee's have green legs when hatched, but soon they will turn green, or greenish.

 

[Lil chick chick]

My babies arrived from McMurray yesterday, I have 6 EE's in the bunch. Four of mine are identical to your stripey babies. Those ones have varying degrees of greyish legs. Then two are yellow, one has dark dark legs. The other lil one has oh so slightly tinted legs. At first I didn't even identify her as one and thought I mighta got shorted. However... The more I stared at the 25 of them, the more I noticed the oh so slight tint in her legs and her cheek puffs. Now I don't see how I missed it. I would say your first picture of you white baby is NOT an EE. That is probably your free chick. Your white ones face is too "clean" No cheeks. Your stripey babies definately have tinted legs. They are cute!

Oooh! Thanks! Green legs? I can't imagine! So my little Snow White girl will be lovely with a snow-white body and pretty green legs!

Thanks for the info!

The EE/ameraucana/auracana thing is complicated and there is a lot of info about it on here. Here is one thread with some info, and a link to the ameraucana organization:

I had a woman e-mail me to say she had some white aruacana's and some other colors that I don't remember. Anyhow if you really don't want it, I'll take it. Just kidding of course. There's no such thing as an ugly chick. Unless it's a silkie of course. If you've followed this site you know what I think of silkies. They'll never take me alive. .............@#$$%^^& brain suckers........rrrrrruuuuuuuuuunnnnnnnnnnn!
