What’s up with my Ameraucana?

[ChickNanny13]

@CorderChick probably got a SiAM Must keep us updated with pictures. Should try contact EdenCamp, she knows her SiAMs and got a beautiful flock. Would love some but shipping makes it too iffy to Hawaii.

It is a true breed, just a rare variety of it. I say carry on the gene and use it for breeding.

She is beautiful! You are so lucky!

Agree with Sourland

What should she breed to? Just curious.

Must ask Eden Camp, don't want to give wrong info but don't think it's another SiAM

Appears to be a purebred Silkied Ameraucana and splash I believe. I would cross her to a Black Ameraucana rooster. All of the chicks should be split for the Silkied gene and blue if she is indeed splash. If she's blue you'll get 50% black and 50% blue chicks. Cross a son back onto her and you should get a clutch of Silkied chicks. I'd create pairs using the splits from your F1 generation in order to expand the genetic diversity. Unfortunately you can't determine who is split for the gene and who doesn't carry it at all in crosses after the initial F1 generation without test breeding.

Except this bird has a wrong leg color. And the other birds in the same pictures are easter eggers.

Those brown chicken's look like eggers. I know you don't want to hear that.
And the other chicken does not look like an Ameraucana. Just look's like some kind of random crossbred.
I know you don't want to heAR that one too.

The red and white chicks are red sex links, not EEs.

Yeah, I know that now, OP said that already.
