Adventures in Easter Eggers. Five are from a local breeder who have a Blue Wheaten Ameraucana as their sire (she breeds Blue Wheaten) and the other four are Americana(Easter Eggers from TSC/Hoover's)
This is just to track their cuteness!!! 😍 Because I have to share!
Hatch: March 15
so I'm getting a flock from someone local.
roosters: silver and wheaten
hens: silver, black, and blue wheaten
what colors could I possibly get if I put the silver roo in with the hens vs if I used the wheaten?
So some backstory. My blue wheaten ameraucana chickens name is Gimble. Gimble has curly toe paralysis. We live in Northern BC. It's actually been super mild so far, with temps right at freezing. So my girls have been moulting for a good month and a half while Gimble just started about a week...
So I have a blue wheaten marans cockerel that I am thinking of crossing with a few of my hens. I've been able to find very little on Google about crosses. Does anyone have pictures of their blue wheaten Marans mixes? I'd love to see any and all pictures, but especially x crested cream legbar...
Are either of these two Blue Wheaten Ameruacana? The darker one looks like a Blue Wheaten Ameruacana but idk about the other one. Any help is appreciated!!

I have two 9.5 week old chickens that hatched out of dark chocolate colored eggs. It was labeled as a Lavender Maran, but I am wondering if this is what a lavender maran looks like? It is quite a bit darker than my Lavender Orpingtons. They both have single combs, not developed or colored at...
I got these chickens from the feed store sometime around the beginning of April. They are supposed to all be female Easter Eggers, however the closest breed I can find to their coats is Blue Wheaten Ameraucanas.
They all pretty much have the same temperament, skittish and stick together. Their...
my hens are about 28 weeks old. All are laying except for my lone Easter egger, who is also at the bottom of the pecking order. She (he?) is vocal but doesn’t crow, and certainly doesn’t crow first thing in the morning. I did have a roo so I know what they should sound like.
So based on these...
Our lawn care guy brought his boys to help and they saw the rooster "attacking" the hen so they went over to aid the hen. They both got scared and the boys chased them. The hen flew the fence and met her fate in the jaws of the neighbors dog. So, our 1 year old bantum Blue Wheaton hen is no...
This is my last attempt at finding eggs for my broody to set :( We've been emailing around for going on 5 days now! (She went broody 5 days ago). My 9 year old (this is his project) has his heart set on Wheaten Ameraucana's!
Does anyone have any available? We're in New Mexico so shipping would...
