They could all be Ameraucanas, but I'd guess Easter Eggers. (Easter Eggers are sort of like sloppy Ameraucanas--not suitable for entering in a show, but pretty birds that lay colored eggs.)

They were all so cute at Southern States we just asked them to give us two sets of two different breeds that would work well together. we are definitely not interested in showbirds, so this works out great for us haha! Thanks
