Lavender is a color but I think she looks more blue. I'm excited to hear what color eggs she lays. She could be a Blue Ameraucana but I can't fully tell and can't remember leg color. Keep us posted. ♡

I looked at some pictures of that breed/color and they do look very similar. I will have to do some research!
And will do! I keep this updated and will try to get some better pictures soon!

Definitely a blue (blue darkens near the head. Lavender does not.) And better quality blues have defined lacing at the feathers. Hers isn't good, but it exists.

Definitely not an Ameraucana--she has a large, straight comb, and Ameraucanas have peacombs.

That is one of my favorite things about her! I love the muffs on chickens! I have never owned any of this breed either, I am excited to have her!
