    I apologize for misspelling Mala's breed. She is an "Ameraucana". The Ameraucana was originally developed in the 1970s, derived from the Araucana. The "Ameraucana" breed was admitted into the standard of Perfection by the American Poultry Association in 1984.

    Sharing my new babies

    I forgot, here's our new additions... 2 Black Copper Marans & 2 Prairie Bluebells. They're a little older now. (I haven't been as efficient taking pics with this group as I was the first. I'm told that's "normal", LOL.)

    What breed is this gray hen chick?

    The hatchery said it happens in a small percentage of the Americauna breed. Leave it to me to get the oddball, LOL.

    What breed is "Lu Lu", baby chick?

    LuLu is now a year old. She is a Pearl White Leghorn and very active. She is also our little escape artist. She loves her daddy and knows the sound of his truck, running to the gate as soon as he pulls in the drive, LOL.

    What breed is this brown, speckled chick?

    Mala is now a year old. She is an Ameicauna (according to the hatchery). She lays an olive-colored egg with a blue interior, which the hatchery says happens in a small percentage of the breed. She's a quiet, loving bird who loves her lap-time.
