Or are these not Blue Ameraucanas at all? When the eggs were given to me by a friend he told me that that’s what they were, but now I’m not so sure. when they first hatched for a couple weeks they did have a gray tint to their down but now they look solid white. They are four weeks old…
When they’re chicks the roosters have the white spot on the head and the little hens have the white spot on each wing. As long as they had no headspots you have all pullets.
Pretty birds! We have a RIR rooster and Barred Rock hens… I did my first hatch last month and we couldn’t figure out where in the world the black chick came from… I just found out yesterday that that’s what you get when you cross the RIRR & BRH, so I set 10 more of their eggs…
So I set eleven eggs yesterday! Ten of them are from a RIR rooster with Barred Rock hens. Those girls are getting up in age, so wanna have a legacy for them. I found out yesterday that the RIR-R BR-H makes a Black Sex-Link so pretty excited about that, and I did hatch one five weeks ago SHE is...
Thank you. yes everything is internal so it looks like everything is good and it’s been running for a few hours now. I went ahead and put the eggs in there so fingers crossed.
