IFA did sale them as Americanas like you mentioned. This bird looks just like my EE or Americana's or whatever the preferred name might be. I love them! They are some of our sweetest birds with the best colored eggs that everyone loves! They bring a great variety to my flock. (8 of my 37 hens are this breed & I buy new each year to insure that we get the beautiful blue eggs- we have hawks here on our farm and so unfortunately I loose some each year, as hard as I try to prevent it. I figure our girls live a much happier life free ranging in the afternoon, eating bugs in the haystack and roaming with the cows...)
You can't really tell in this pic, but they look very much like carldaughs bird. The one that has it's head down, then the other is our favorite (Momma Brynn is her name - our granddaughter named her after her mom, my daughter)

Your frozen veggie treat looks awesome! I need to try your recipe!Here's a better pic of her, sharing a frozen veggie treat in this Florida 95 deg. heat.
She's an awesome egg layer (2 a day average), but eggs are not brown, nor white.
They are more of a light "tan", light the feathers just above her legs.
