Welp, they are beautiful and bought as Pullets

[BeccaRecca13]

Hello
First Year Chicken Keeper, Second actual post here
Went out and looked at my group of “Littles” which include 4 Buff Orpingtons and “apparently” 3 Ameraucana’s. These were all bought as Pullets (but as we all know, things don’t always go as planned). Either way they are beautiful birds. What do you think of my “Littles” flock.
I picked them up at 1 day old on May 15th!

First 3 photos are Bird #1 - sold as Ameraucana pullet
Next 3 photos are Bird #2 - sold as Ameraucana pullet
Last 3 are Bird #3 - also sold as Ameraucana pullet

Thank you all for any/all information! This has been such a great adventure and I love learning

Age? All pullets, not ameraucanas, they are Easter eggers

All look to be pullets, but the 2nd EE is suspicious…

I got them on May 15th, so currently between 6-7 weeks.

Cant be sure yet. Only the second one is suspicious to me. Post again in a few weeks. At that time, post pics of them standing on their own so that stance and feathering can be seen easily. Take a pic from the side so neck and back and saddle feathers can be seen

Pullets.

Never mind, they are all pullets then, I did my math wrong…even the second EE is a pullet.

Pullets for now. The Ameraucana’s are actually Easter Eggers because they have green feet an legs and aren’t recognized colors or patterns. You can read more about the difference here. Article by EmmaRainboe
