I use covered runs. On my little ones, I use cardboard boxes for brooding then move them up to wire cages. I have several that love to perch high on the boxes-but they always return to where they are supposed to be. I don't think they are more apt to fly-but I think in they can be described as...
Thanks. The facebook page is just getting started. My son and I are creating it. I started the "For sale" section and started adding some pics-hopefully I will get more added tonight. My son is more well versed on the history of the breed-he researched it for school.
Farm stores are probably...
I just started a facebook page (Stateline Araucanas and more) if anyone wants to check it out.
About tails, yes they r not standard of perfection but are part of the original heritage of the breed. Tailed birds can be good in a breeding program because araucana can actually have a problem...
I just downsized for the summer months so only have 3 breeder hens laying. If I have more than 12 to send, they would be the price of 12-but I cannot guarantee I would have more. I got three eggs yesterday.
If by Friday (the day I would want to be paid through paypal) I only have 10 eggs to...
Just be forewarned that araucana don't always have great fertility and shipping eggs are always a gamble. I just posted last weeks eggs two hours ago and they sold immediately.
K. Pullet would be a BBR (but cockerel hatched from a BBR hen with a brown red roo). You can always PM. I will also possibly have eggs ready to ship a week from Monday. The cockerel is the last of our fall hatch and I am hanging on to most of my spring hatch til the fall to make sure I keep what...
I have a possible pullet (3 months old) but she is pretty young still and I would not want to ship them together-afraid she might get hurt with him being so much larger. Not sure if I could just split the shipping box to include her-I don't have anything on hand but a single stall box. She would...
TRUE Araucana cockerel, brown-red, born October 2013, double tufted and rumpless. Good natured. Would like to keep him but I need the room for others. Will ship.
The GLW are fabulous. We have bantam SLW, black/blue project, and and partridge wyandottes. If you ever have extra SLW eggs or chicks I would love some! Just now getting fertile eggs started in the incubator. Slow start this spring with laying! Where r u located at i don't know
Anyone want to take a guess at the gender of this 5 week old wheaten chick (which might also have silver)? Sorry the pictures aren't better-he/she did not want to set still. This might be the first time ever I am hoping for a roo.
Bought a dozen eggs from Sega 3 weeks ago. Despite eggs going to Florida before heading to Indiana, a post office screw up and some incubator issues thanks to a cold spell in Indiana, the first little peeper made it out today!The eggs were secured in the box and all but one (a quitter egg) made...
