What breed?

The 2 hens I have are defintely purebred, I got them from a local breeder that only breeds Ameraucanas and not EE. They both have the pea combs, dark slate legs, Muffs & Beards. Here is a picture of our Blue pullet, our other is a black hen.



The Blue should produce Blue or Black chicks. The offspring may not breed true, though, and males may have leakage. The Black hen should produce Black chicks, males will probably develop leakage. Your rooster is a partridge Easter Egger, from looking at your previous pics. If your goal is breed standard birds, you should find a Blue/Black/Splash rooster to pair with them. The Easter Egger rooster will introduce genes that are highly undesirable for BBS Ameraucana, like red in the shoulder and yellow skin. There is also no telling what egg color genes he has.
