    Lol well I didn't know what either of them were when I got her so I'm ok with it, I just hated seeing her all alone like a reject . She's always in her own little world lol, she's not an outcasts she's just a space cadet. She gets confused sometimes, I say, lol. Her legs are a light green/grey...

    Ameraucana thread for posting pictures and discussing our birds

    I didn't know guineas had a reputation for being wild when I got my first 2, so I didn't know to work extra hard on taming them. At first they freaked out when held but I basically forced them to get used to riding on my shoulder around the house for half an hour every day or two. My male tamed...

    Hmm, it's weird because they have Easter eggers there too, they label them differently. they're all from townline hatchery, if that means anything.

    Aww. My Ameracuana, Macao (don't ask, husband named her, no clue) is adorable but so skiddish even though she's been handled and spoiled just like the rest of our chickens and guineas all of whom are super tame. Wanted to ask, is this common? She is sweet once you catch Her but acts like you're...
