What are your Chickies names?! ALSO,what IS this LIGHT YELLOW ONE?!!

[Illia]

I don't see any Ameraucanas there, but your chipmunk looking ones are Easter Eggers.

As for names? Well, I have a lot of chickens, but I usually go with things like:

Oscura
Charcoal
Cheesecake
Mila
Rix
Muffs
Lilac
Moha

I often base a name after their personality or their color/breed.

For example, I have a Wyandotte named Chatta - Because she's the biggest loudmouth I've ever known.

Illia, no way any are easter eggers, they didnt even sell those @ the store...


ok, if the big ones not Ameraucana, what is it?

Cloverleaf Farm, My receipt says those should be: 1 silver laced wyandotte, 1 new hampshire red, 1 barred plymouth, 1 rhode island red, 1 Ameraucana. I know the red one is the Rhode island red. From looking @ chicks online (the silver laced wyandotte's had the defined black lines by thier eyes like my yellow one with brown black mohawk), the black one is the barred rock & the yellow with stripe is silver laced wyandotte.. BUT I swear, since i wasnt gonna get a black one, & @ the last min I got a silver laced wyandotte, which was the black one.. I really didnt want a barred rock, dont know why the receipt says i got one... I dont know what the big one & the all yellow ones are...

thechickengoesRAWR, Ill look @ the little light ones cheeks tonight..


Im soo confused now...


For names im thinking, Penny, Lucy, Carly, Roxy & Daisy.....

Quote:
Hatcheries (read Feed Stores) don't sell TRUE Ameraucanas, they advertise them that way, but they are Easter Eggers. I would guess that they either mismarked the sheet that the cashiers use to check you out, or they put them into the wrong bins...I read a funny post earlier today that said that most feed store employees can't tell the difference between a chick and a duckling, let alone identify different breeds of chick. If your yellow one with brown stripes ends up being your slw, I will send you a dozen hatching eggs for free. I guess you'll just have to wait and see what's what.

Wow, you are confused

You don't have a golden laced wyandotte there. The black/silver one is your silver laced wyandotte. Your yellowish reddish chick in the first pic is your New Hampshire. The chipmunk striped is probably your Ameracauna (actually EE). The pure yellow is hard to tell, we need a full head shot and comb view, and leg color. Could easily be a leghorn or white plymouth rock from what I can see.
