    Pure Silky Roo x Pure Ameraucana Hen Question

    I breed pure Silkies. Also, I am currently incubating pure Ameraucanas. Eventually, I plan to breed a cross between these two breeds (Silkie roo x Ameraucana hens), is there an existing name for this specific hybrid? Could these technically be considered Fibro Easter Eggers? I want to breed for...

    Mystic Onxy Breeding For Fibro

    I went ahead and purchased 10 Mystic Onyx hatching eggs. It is my understanding that these birds are a hybrid breed (Silky x meat bird). Should I assume, then, that breeding a MO to a MO will not result in a MO? I don't care about the technicalities of my birds being "pure" or the outward...

    I. AM. SERIOUSLY. STUMPED (two different eggs, one hen??)!

    P.S. Yes, both eggs are blue inside.

    Honey is a Starlight Green Egger (so technically an EE), Kitty is a pure Ameraucana (supposed roo). This mystery egg is bigger (taller AND girthier), softer more fragile shell. Today, we got the usual olive green, hard-shelled, normal-sized (smaller than the mystery ) egg from Honey. I'm at a loss.

    If you're familiar with Honey the SGE hen and Kitty the Ameraucana Splash "roo", you know my dilemma. It's been crazy with Kitty...back and forth between hen and roo and then SETTLING on roo for certain and now this! Guys, I have two chickens...Honey and Kitty. That's it. Honey has laid a...

    Splash Ameraucana roo x Starlight Green Egger hen

    Awww you're great! Genetics fascinates me, but I just never fully grasp it. You could say I get the gist of the basics, but when you start getting into pprr, etc. etc. etc. The rest is woin[94ha'sldkncq[ to me LOL!! That doesn't stop me from trying, though and you've seriously made my night...

    Lavender Ameraucana bantams

    I've never owned bantams of any kind, but I am familiar with regular Ameraucanas and they are the best. Kitty is our Ameraucana roo...I swear he is reincarnated from a lap cat and acts like a human toddler. He follows you around, cooing and purring, BEGGING to be picked up and cuddled. He will...

    Splash Ameraucana roo x Starlight Green Egger hen

    Also, even though the offspring will be mutts, they will take no physical characteristics from Honey (also a mutt...prairie bluebell Egger+ Mystery brown egg layer)? Will some of them have beard/muff and some of them clean-faced? Some have shorter combs and nearly non-existant waddles and some...

    Splash Ameraucana roo x Starlight Green Egger hen

    Thanks so much again! If you don't mind, would you mind giving me your take on Kitty? I know that he is a true Ameraucana (I've seen the breeding program of the seller), albeit from a subpar breeding program...see the leakage in his wings? This doesn't bother me AT ALL, in fact, I think it's...

    Splash Ameraucana roo x Starlight Green Egger hen

    YOU, Ma'am, are AMAZING! This is EXACTLY what I was looking for and you did splendidly. Can't thank you enough. Honey is...creamy rust? Her butt is portrayed perfectly in the photo above lol Of course she didn't cooperate when I grabbed the camera, so you get a pretty ok shot of Kitty but only...

    Splash Ameraucana roo x Starlight Green Egger hen

    Now that we know for sure Kitty is a rooster (and turning into quite the handsome boy, at that), I am curious to see pictures of potential offspring between him and our Starlight Green Egger 'Honey' and learn what color eggs their offspring are likely to lay since Honey's eggs are blue on the...

    What Have I Got??

    Alright, All, I'm stopping the guessing game and calling it. It is much more clear to me today (amazing how much maturing a chicken can do in just 48 hours!!) that Kitty is a rooster. I clearly see more and more of the rooster traits in him. Here are some pics I got today and yeah...Kitty is...
