McMurray hatchery ‘Ameraucanas’

[Katz222]

We have that other one with green legs that we were told is a Wyandotte but is probably not.

These are the two I was told were gold laced wyandottes and seem true to form. EXCEPT the one in front has large splashes and a big comb and the one behind has more of the laced look and almost no comb. I got 3 that looked liked the one in back and then the one in front all labeled gold laced. My sister has the other two that look like the one behind. They are all the same age about 10 weeks old. I'm really starting to wonder what the one in front is. But the legs on all of them are orange.

We have that other one with green legs that we were told is a Wyandotte but is probably not.

She appears to have a rose comb and is coming in laced. She looks to be a blue laced red wyandotte.

I totally agree now that I thought about it and looked at pictures! You are right. I had them mixed up. Thank you!!!

Have more pics? Can’t really see her comb but do see green eggs. EE is my guess.

Also, here are the breeds they said they had in stock that week

So my chicks look like they have green legs, but I’m not really sure. Also how do I tell my (I guess EE’s) from my WTBs? Leg color? They are all different colors, so that doesn’t help.
I’m fine with EE’s if that’s what I have, just not what I was originally expecting.

These are my 3 suspected ameraucanas. I have 5 total, but haven’t had enough time to really look though ALL of them. Look like blue legs right now to me especially in person, don’t know about on camera (I’m so confused). I need more opinions! 1 and 3 have darker legs than 2, but I really don’t know. One looks black, one looks brown and one looks blue/brown. Thanks for any help!

#1-Brown looking one



#2-Blue/Brown looking one



#3-Black looking one

From the research I've done a true Ameraucana has a beard and slate or green legs. The legs will be colored from birth. Yours may be Easter eggers.

No green legs for a true Ameraucana. They either have slate or black legs with white skin, so the pads of their feet should be white or a pinkish.

From pictures above (or below) does anyone think they can predict what colors these chicks will be as adults? Thanks for any help! Here are the pictures again just in case.
