I'm located in SE PA and looking for pure, large fowl Ameraucana pullets or hens.

This auction is for a bearded blue silkie cockerel from Hattrick Silkies. I am lucky enough to be only 2 hours from Nikki and when she posted these were available, I could not resist.
He is a beautiful silkie and will probably be gorgeous when he fills out.
Great foot feathering, beautiful...
This auction is for a blue bearded silkie pullet about 4 months old (June hatch). She was hatched from eggs from Dylan's Silkies and the egg was marked as a lavender so she probably is a self blue split.
She has a huge crest, heavy foot feathering and gorgeous cushion.
This little girl is full...

She is full of pin feathers and has a lot of growing ahead of her but has...

Pullet-grey w/silver frosting.
Hmmm. These birds are obvious self blues and the cockerel looks like an F1 porcelain.
Culls?

I have a cockerel with some toe issues. I know 4 toes are bad and not to use it as a breeder but what about 6 toes, or poorly spaced toes or missng toenails?
Are these hatching issues, developing embryo issues or genetics?

I was just locking them up in the coop at 8:30 and there are always some minor scuffles until they settle in. My "nice" splash cockerel went after 3 pullets, just to bite them. As he was hanging onto her tail the younger, fiesty cockerel went after his tail. The splash flew upward and hit his...

So, I wondering what the deal is here, with PA.
I think they run the course at New Bolton in Kennet Square, PA.
I've emailed at least 3 people with no replies. I think people in PA do it to do their own flock's.

My silkies were all trained to go up into their own coops/hutches when we said "UP! UP! UP! UP!.
The women who bought my PQ pairs was very impressed.
They'll do this even if they've only been out an hour and we have to go out. This...
What a crazy rooster. He just had to go back there and taunt the racoon. You would think he would know better. Even the cat walks a wide circle around anything in a trap.
