    I hatched out a Wheaton a couple of years ago, and the day she laid her first egg, a beautiful A7, a chicken hawk killed her! I was so sad

    You are right, and these were my quitters, also they were not washed just wiped a bit before I incubated them, so the color wasn't as true as it would have been had they been washed, they are a bit stained.

    Optycal, here is a pic of 6 of the 12 eggs I just hatched out. I know for a fact that they come from an Ameraucana breeder, I know locally. I think they can come in really blue to slightly blue green, almost a sea foam green. I would hatch them out just to see!!

    Yeah, I don't love the bator, although I don't really have problems regulating the temp and humidity in this one. I would invest in a different one, but I only hatch eggs once a year, every other year, so it's served its purpose. My first hatch 2 years ago yielded 5 of 18, but those were...

    I saw the pics on their website, they didn't show the bellies though. I was on the fence about them being black or brown red, just wanted some other opinions

    New babies!!!! 4 of 12 hatched in my little giant, not a great hatch rate. We lost one when the other chicks flipped its pip over and I think it suffocated in the night, that was sad, we would have had 5. I believe they are Black Ameraucanas, Now let's hope they aren't all Roos!!!

    Ameraucana thread for posting pictures and discussing our birds

    Can anyone tell me if black Ameraucana chicks have light yellow bellies with a black stripe up the middle? The chicks I have hatched all have the yellowish bib but I wasn't sure if the belly color was an indicator as well?

    Questions about hatching eggs.

    I have heard that if a momma shows aggression to the chicks you have to remove them immediately because in almost all cases she will kill them. If you have a brooder box set up you should just move them there as soon as they hatch, it's better to be safe than sorry.

    Did the hen peck it? I'd separate them before she kills it!

    Egg bound I think

    Is it just a prolapsed vent? I had one with that, Vaseline, a rubber glove and a warm bath fixed her right up!

    Questions about hatching eggs.

    I got eggs for my broody 8 days ago, and as soon as I gave her the foreign clutch, she left the coop and wouldn't sit, at all. So into the bator they went! I really thought she would sit it out but she had been broody for 2 weeks already when I finally was able to find someone selling eggs...
