Isn't that discouraging? My blue girl hasn't started laying yet. Guess I expected her to start laying around 20 to 22 weeks like all the rest of my other birds. She's coming 23 weeks now I do believe. I hear that Ameraucanas can start late, and it looks like EE's too?! We just have to be patient.. Love the coloring of your girl! I have an EE I haven't posted yet that has some of that coloring in her, not as much black. Will have to get a picture of her... she is laying.
A nice green/blue egg. Hatched this spring too.
Thanks! Still patiently waiting for my first blue egg.
I got a great shot of her today that I had to share... she actually approached me, so maybe she's starting to warm up to people finally. I would like to see a pic of your girl that has similar markings. Are there any names for the color variations, or is it just considered a "mutt"?

Well, now that I have taken the picture, and see yours again, I can see that my girl is a lot lighter....more red. I have three pictures to share.
She has black in her though...
This is my favorite one of her... I got these pictures while she was inside the coop area, not outside with most of the others on the lawn.
And I do believe that ours are EE's, not the pure Ameraucana.... so yes, little muttskies...
