Splash amerecauna

[Cinnamon11]

I bought 4 chicks that were sold as Americanas so I bought them knowing they would be EEs. I noticed that one of them had many factors of a true Amerecana, blue legs, splash coloration, and much bluer eggs that any of the others. Is my EE actually an Amerecana?

It’s very interesting because normally the story is the other way around, people buy an Americana that’s actually an EE

I agree it’s very interesting! But she will be loved either way she’s a very sweet hen!

I would have been too! I'm such a "girl" when it comes to pretty, flashy marked animals of any kind. Lol
