Thanks! Another question ... The hatchery says they are Ameraucanas. How can you tell the two breeds apart?

The only hatcheries that have Ameraucana are Meyer, MyPetChicken.com, and Cackle. All others have Easter Eggers. Ameraucana always have a color specified, just like any other breed that you get from a hatchery. If no color is specified, it's an Easter Egger.

Pullet, then. Hatcheries are a very reliable source for sexlinks. That coloring is female. The males are mostly white.

Cockerel. Pullets don't get that pink in the comb, that young. D'Uccles are not particularly know to be early layers.
