    Ameraucana thread for posting pictures and discussing our birds

    I have two Ameraucana that I hatched on April 4 of this year. When should they start laying eggs? My other hatch of Barred Rocks have been laying for a few weeks and they are a month younger.

    Welcome fellow Wisconsinite. I just got ducks myself for the first time this year. Cute little ladies but messy.

    Anyone have a thought as to what breed these are?

    Thanks, tough to tell when they are little and have zero experience with ducks. It's been fun learning though.

    It's been six weeks since I got these fellas. I'm positive the brown duck is a Campbell. This one, I haven't been able to match up with anything as of yet. I thinking some type of Mallard but I haven't come across any with the gold color before. If anyone has an ideas it would be appreciated.

    @Ghibli I was thinking the same for the brown one too. But these are the first ducks I have ever own, let alone raised, so I figured I would ask those with more experience.

    Hi everyone. I was wondering if anyone would happen to know what breed of ducks these are? I got them last week from a friend and she had no idea what they were.

    "Springing in the Chicks" 2016 April Hatch-a-Long Hosted by Mike & Sally

    Hatched my first batch of eggs this week. I set 12 Ameraucana that I had shipped in from N.H. and 6 from my mixed flock. So far I have 10 out of the 18 that have hatched. Which as a first timer I think is doing o.k.

    Chicken Breed Focus - Orpington

    We got 2 Buffs with our first batch of eight chickens last year. We wanted birds that could handle Wisconsin winters. Both were hens, we thought, but lo and behold one turned out to be a rooster. Skillet, our hen, is the first to greet anyone who goes into the backyard. My avatar is a picture of...

    My small poultry setup

    Welcome Draag80, Not sure what run dimensions you have for that many birds but I think the recommended space per bird is 10 square ft in a run.

    MPC Easter Egg GIVEAWAY!

    Free hatching eggs would be sweet. Any Marans, EE or Partridge Cochin would go along nicely with the ladies I have now.

    Wisconsin "Cheeseheads"

    Morning everyone, Just ordered some Ameraucana eggs this week. Going to try them for my first hatch. Been working on plans for a larger coop. Thinking an 8x6 should give me the room for all the chickens I have and want for a few more years anyways. Darn chicken math..
