I am so excited for you! It is a beautiful blue too!
My wheatens both turned out to be boys. Go figure all I wanted was blue eggs and both chicks were promised to be girls but they started crowing. I finally got a female chick at the end of July... so I have a ways to go before any blue eggs...
Hello everyone. I have 2 Crested Cream Legbar female chicks. They are about 9-10 weeks old now. I do not see a crest developing at all. Do they develope later or will they be un-crested?
True. I should try and get some up dated pictures of the boys. They are at my brother in-law's, as I didn't want the crowing to bother my neighbours. They really are looking good. But it would be interesting to hear your comments about their colouring.
Thankyou so much for your reply. I wasn't expecting that she isn't a true Ameraucana. Especially since the boys were true and she has the slate legs and all. Funny what I missed being so close and concentrating so much on sex. I guess she would be an EE then? We will love Pasha regardless. I...

Thankyou. I see what you mean.The boys has some barring in their feathers when the very first ones came in. Still crossing my fingers that Pasha is a girl. Time will tell. Thankyou for your help. ..... actually on second look of the boy's "baby"pictures it isn't really barring I see but colours.
Hello Everyone!
Well my two female Wheaten Ameraucana chicks from March 29th hatch turned out to be boys! Beautiful... but boys. So no blue eggs for me.
I purchased two more female Wheaten Ameraucana's however one died before I picked them up. (Don't get me started on the breeder... a whole...
I am picking up 2 Female Crested Cream Legbar's tomorrow! I hope all goes well, as my original blue egg layers Ameraucana Wheaton's turned out to be boys.So I'm trying a sex link bread to try and get blue egg laying hens. I am reading up the bread. Are they easy to integrate with other birds? I...
I'm not the right one either... only wanted 3... ordered 6. Couldn't resist when I picked them up and took home two extra. So now I have 8... worried my wheaten's are boys so I ordered 2 more. They are due to hatch on Friday. Are you keeping track?? I'll have 10... 7 more than we thought we...
Any update on your injured chick?? I havr been wondering what the vet said. I couldn't find a vet in my area.. but rest seemed to do the trick for my chick. Hope you get good news.
I had a chick that got a leg injury too at about the same age. She was run over by the other chicks. I thought we would have to cull her. But we built a "hospital"for her. Basically it was a small box covered with hardware cloth and placed it in the brooder. (I have a fairly large brooder) She...
Hello Chicken Experts!!
I was hoping someone can take a look at the following pictures of my two Wheaton Ameraucana chicks. We picked them up the day they hatched, March 29th. They are about 4 1/2 weeks now. Tenley was much larger than the others when we picked them up and had a large amount...
I gave my 2 week old chicks sand for a dust bath today and they went to town EATING it!! They were pushing and shoving each other excited for it. After 5 min they were all still frantic scratching and eating. I removed the sand because I was scared they were eating too much too fast. Any ideas...
