Mystery birds

[kjay11]

Hey-o! I got these fellas at Tractor Supply and have a pretty solid feeling that they aren't what they were advertised as. I know you are as shocked as I am, lol! The first 2 were sold as Ameracaunas, and the second 2 as Sapphire Splash. They are 5 or 6 weeks old. Can anyone verify what breed they are? Also, I'm thinking 3 out of the 4 are roos?

They are cute little birds either way...I just want to know what I am working with, hahaha!

I have one Ameracauna in my backyard flock and I can see some of those markings in your chicks. I have never had Sapphire Splash, so I can't comment on those. In any case, they sure are cuties and I thank you for the pics. Makes my day to look at chick pics. Chickens are my stress reliever and even more so these days. Take care.

It was asked of me when I asked about my 2 Ameraucana... but what color are your Ameraucana’s legs? They look yellow in the pictures (which would indicate EE most likely as Ameraucana have slate/black legs) but that may be just the lighting... (mind you I’m not a chicken breed expert just trying to make it so that they have the information should one of them get on this thread)

Their legs are as yellow as yellow can be
Sorry about the lighting...decided to figure this out at midnight when they were all tucked in. Tried not to perturb them too much my turning on a light, lol

These are the legs on mine...

still think they might be EEs but was told they were Ameraucana by someone on here (the signage at C-A-L Ranch Store has me convinced)
