Easter Eggers (EE's) are not a Ameraucana.
The EE's that you get from hatcheries are a cross bred chicken that may or may not carry the Blue Egg Gene and have very little Ameraucana blood in them.

X2 and the coloring is wheaton.

It actually looks more like Blue Wheaton if it was an actual ameracauna. The female wheaton would have black on the tail.

She's not Wheaten or Blue Wheaten, not the Barring

At best I would call the pattern a poor Buff Barred.

My uncle that we got her from, has a couple others like her and they lay the EE eggs. So, I guess we will see what we get.
