Ameraucana adalah satu baka ayam domstik yang berasal daripada Amerika. Ia mula dibiakkan di Amerika Syarikat pada tahun 1970an, hasil daripada kacukan baka Araucana yang dibawa masuk daripada Chile. Ia dibiakkan bagi mengekalkan gen telur berwarna biru dan menghapuskan ciri lethal allele dari gen induk. Ia boleh didapati dalam kedua-dua saiz standard dan bantam.[2]
