No Ameraucana just EasterAucana lol

I was sold these as Ameraucanas but knowing myself and what I know about Ameraucanas I’m sure these are Easter Eggers! Very disappointed.

Why are you sure that they're Easter Eggers?

Why are you sure that they're Easter Eggers?

I have some that have no ears or muffs! They all have blue legs and every other characteristics of an Ameraucanas except the beards or muffs they’re clean faced.

I don't know for sure, but being that they are all B/B/S and look to have slate legs they may be the real deal? Just perhaps not show quality? Do beards come in better as they age?

They all look like mixed quality BBS ameraucanas to me. Honestly it could be way worse. I have a 'purebred ameraucana' from a registered breeder (I think they were through the Ameraucana alliance) that has white legs and lays brown eggs. Not every ameraucana is of the same quality.

These really look like BBS ameraucanas to me, just of mixed quality.

The guy I bought them from also sold me these ones. I have to say his lavender are so much more beautiful than the black,splash and blue ones.

I do believe they're true Ameraucanas, and lovely. It's rare to say that these days.

They have beards and muffs, just not very full ones like you would see on a show quality bird. I would qualify them as "hatchery quality" Ameraucanas
