    Araucana thread anyone?

    Thank you for the replies. Can you add a picture to give me an example of a good body type? Also, a close up of a good head shape, wattles and comb? I dont suppose anybody has a good black rooster they want to sell

    Thank you Lanae! Would I be better off using my older rooster since he has less leakage? I prefer the younger roosters tighter comb but that's the only advantage I see.

    Araucana thread anyone?

    My goal? That's a great question! I'm trying to sort through what I have and what is best to focus on. I don't show but I'd still like to work towards improving what I have.

I mostly have black arucanas, I have a young rooster that I thought was black with some gold leakage. As he has gotten older, he's also gotten more gold. Now I'm thinking he may be a golden duckwing...

    I'm glad to hear the three row comb isn't the best way to tell the gender. At what age are pointy saddle and hackle feathers obvious?

    Araucana thread anyone?

    Hi! I'm hoping for some help determining the gender of one of my chicks. The chicks are about 6-7 weeks old. The chick in question has a smaller, less red comb than the male it is pictured with but has the three rows like males usually do. It is also the only chick that is partially tailed. It...

    I'm new to breeding/hatching so I can't speak for what's normal but I plan on rehoming tailed chicks.

    Araucana thread anyone?

    It's so cute I figured it had to be. I really like the colors coming in. Are any of the colors an indication of pullet or roo? Or do you strictly go by comb and behavior?

    Thank you for the reply! You're right about chick number 5. I must have mixed up pictures. How about a redo for chick 5 (partially tailed I think)
