Yes, you can absolutely come pick out the birds you want - there are so many different colors and characteristics that I would have a hard time trying to guess what you preferred. If you do want some of these mixed pullets, let me know soon as they are being reserved fast (15 already spoken for). Also, some of the chicks I will be able to sex a lot sooner than others - those Araucana chickens are so hard for me to tell apart, while the Marans mixes are pretty obvious early on, so..... I can offer some earlier than others, lets say in six weeks from today (they would actually be 8 weeks)? Just talk to me about your schedule and we'll work something out.
I plan to hatch out every egg that I get from my Araucana birds this year - large fowl and bantam, to see what my flock is producing. As I said, it can be really hard for me to tell which is male and which is female of this breed, so I will have a lot of older Araucana to sell later this year, after I've decided which roosters and hens to keep for myself. If you are not wanting the straight run chicks, then we can work on getting you some girls later on, and in that case we could go ahead and raise some SLW chicks up with those Araucana and you can take home pullets of both breed. PM me it sounds like there is a way for this to work out for you, we can play around the details.
Take care,
Megan.
