Quote: There was a thread about this, asking why in the world people get from hatcheries - It started off by showing the terrible quality of Ideal's Salmon Faverolles. So, yeah, I guess they're prone to having uuggllyy Faverolles.

Quote: Does she have a Single Comb? That may explain. . . And it is a good way of telling what color egg your EE might lay. Mine was a light brown, and I didn't make the connection of her having a very floppy single comb until weeks ago.

Quote: Noone was meaning to be offensive, infact I clearly stated that if I misread her questioning statement, please tell me. I do understand that this thread sadly is prone to having debates and/or discussions irrelevant to "pictures of stock from Ideal." I was just wondering what she...

Quote: . Seems to me like they don't admit it. They still call it Ameraucana, and still confuse it with Easter Eggers. Also, they're saying that "Araucanas" sold from hatcheries are really Ameraucanas. Wrong, they're Easter Eggers. Ideal Hatchery in specific I asked why they don't call them...

Quote: Poor chickens. Bare bottom farm: Gorgeous EE! They must've put Welsummer in their stock to make her. . . Does she lay yet? Are her eggs olive colored?

Oh I'm actually very interested to see what the La Fleche will turn to look like, but as I've always said - I just hope that whoever tries preserving a rare breed like that from a hatchery makes sure they preserve the closest to APA standards.

Sorry but chickenlover is right. This is off-topic regardless, but not even I would have bought my current chickens if Murray McMurray showed pics of their real birds. The reason hatcheries like Ideal do so well is because they present show-quality bird photos, and most people who buy from...
