What is this color?

[thenovicehen]

I got a little confused in the comments, as I don’t understand phenotypes or genetics yet. I have an ameraucana I've been trying to figure out her color since April. Can someone help with just telling me what she is besides pretty? She’s molting a bit in the photos.

Yep, that's a variation if Blue Partridge. Your tag didn't work.

Huh. I always thought that the "trademark," so to say, of partridge was the lacing. Like this (not my pic):

Still learning chicken genetics, but I suppose the above sample is a "pure" partridge, selectively bred for clarity of the pattern. With the EEs other posters have shown, you would have a partridge base, but other genes subduing the patterning, right?

It's not really Lacing, that's just how it's described. The Partridge pattern,(Gold/Red), is like the Silver Pencilled pattern, but isn't silver. If that makes sense.

Just got up a few minutes ago.

Most of the time with the Easter Eggers, there are other genes involved, giving each a unique look. So, yes the pattern can be represented differently depending on the genetics involved.
