True Ameraucauna? Hen or Roo??

[JoRiddle]

Hi all! I got this girl as a day old chick from a woman who said her friend shows Ameraucaunas and gave her eggs to hatch. She’s about 9 weeks now. Do you think she’s actually an Ameraucauna, or an EE like so many “Americaunas” are? I was told she’s a Wheaton, which based on pictures, I also believe she’s a hen as Roos are dark feathered. Any input into breed and gender would be great! I sure love this chicken!

I have no idea about the color, but she appears to have the right comb, face fluff, and leg color. Let me summon an expert* for you: @EmmaRainboe

*At least on the spelling

She is a true wheaten Americauna and definitely a pullet. Congrats!

Also, I have two and the eggs are light blue. They are smart, friendly, quiet, and medium sized so good for hot weather.

She looks like she could be a blue wheaten Ameraucana.

Americauna

Ameraucana. Americaunas are EEs.

Looks like a true Wheaten Ameraucana pullet.

She could be wheaten too, this just looks blue, not black to me.

I think she could be a blue Wheaton because she definitely has blue on her back and underneath a bit.

I love this little girl so much! She’s sooo friendly and when I sit down, she’s one of the first to jump in my lap for petting and a nap.

She's a true Ameraucana! I am quite sure she's wheaten rather than blue wheaten due to her black wings. If you want, you can spread her wing and confirm her primaries are black to be sure!
