yeah i know. Wheaton is one of the accepted colors of ameraucana. all other color variations are considered EE.. I misspoke I should have said why are you not calling him A Wheaton ameraucana instead of an EE

"Their probably gun shy, it's always safer to call a bird an EE, oooops, did I type that out loud.

Thanks for the feedback on the bird; we just got him last week and told at the time he was an EE. He does have slate legs although the pictures may show a green tint. He is our 1st "mix" bird and not being familar with the breeds of EE or Ameraucana I chose to use a default of EE. I appreciate the discussion on him as it educates me about the breed(s). Steen and others, keep up with informing people like me who do not get offended with education.
Thanks

I think he is a wheaten ameraucana not an EE. He will make some very nice EE though

Wheaten x wheaten   !00% wheaten
blue wheaten x wheaten     50% wheaten   50% blue wheaten

thank you so much jerryse. Its a blue wheaten x blue wheaten that gives a percentage of splash right

Do you have access to a wheaten hen or two? You could see if he breeds true that way.

Thanks jerryse. Sry everyone for asking ameraucana questions. I know how people get treated on the other thread, im sry if im asking pure bred questions. I have EE and ameraucana, i know everyone here is allot nicer and accepting. I wish there was a thread where both are accepted for conversation. I dont want to assume this one is or isnt so please let me know if any of you dont like it.

I don't claim to speak for everyone here on this thread by any stretch. I like Am's and EE, (though if I had to pick just one it would be EE all the way) just don't like the Am thread. I like the friendliness and "non-uppityness" of this thread. We have discussed both for a long time. I think someone made another thread specifically for Ams, EE, araucana's, but I didn't move over to the thread b/c I thought it was "re-inventing the wheel" and like our friendly little group, so don't know how it is going, if it remained open and friendly or not.

I call them the chicken divas on the other thread. Their chickens poop doesnt stink
