I wanna make sure I got my surprise chick right lol. Heres all three together. I know (or bought) two female Ameraucana. So two of these should be the female ameraucana.

First time adding chicks to my flock so im new to raising littles. My chickens are now a week and a half old. I ordered 6 females and 1 free suprise chick from mcmurray.
1 barred rock, 2 cuckoo marans, 1 golden campine, and 2 ameraucana.

Heres my mystery chick. What we thinking? Possibly a whiting true green?! Maybe female? Lol
I think you got it right. This is what my brown “Ameraucana” looked like when she was almost 2 weeks old and then when she feathered out. I have another that looks like her, but a black face and gold instead of the white. Then I have an all black one and an all white one. All of the girls I received from McMurray are so friendly! If you have time, please update progress pics! They’re all so cute!!!I wanna make sure I got my surprise chick right lol. Heres all three together. I know (or bought) two female Ameraucana.

So similar!! Mine is a few shades darker? Possibly?I also have a chick like this I got from McMurray and have been equally stumped. At 3 weeks, it looks like this (also attaching a pic of it the day I got it, and at about a week and a half old):View attachment 3834890View attachment 3834892View attachment 3834893
Mine has lightened up quite a bit from when it first arrived. It was much more red, but as soon as feathers starting coming in with the white, definitely lightened up. So hard to say what either of ours could be! (I ordered 15 choice layer pullets, and I don’t think this was the mystery chick, but with a mixed selection, it’s hard to tell!)So similar!! Mine is a few shades darker? Possibly?
