wow I have saved 2 chicks this week. either last Sunday or Monday morning I went out to the pens and there was a wet chick on the ground. I thought it was death but when I picked it up it peeped but it was cold. I brought it in and put in under the heat lamp and it is fine. This evening I pulled...
no joke my bantams roo's start breeding at about 2 1/2 months and the hens start laying at 3 months. they go broody 2 to 4 times a year. I write everything down on my calendar so I know when they hatch. I don't know if living on the Gulf of Mexico has anything to do with it or not. We didn't...
I am selling off all mine now and have about 50 chicks and more daily with all the girls broody. I do have some nice birds but none show quality as far as I know. My cancer is back this time with 3 tumors in 9 months since the removal of the first one. Surgery Friday the 13th and then I am done...
need to get that guys ad for Araucana booted off Craigs List. He replied back that he wasn't using my pic and to mind my own business. He is in violation of copywrite laws by stealing the pic and is most likely false advertising in his listing since he is not posting pics of his own Araucana...
egg yes they are my favs too, chase me around for treat and jump up on my arms or shoulders or even my lap if I am sitting.
I'll never show but would like to make some improvements to my flock. They will probably never be perfect but I will love them all the same.
Yes Lanae said they were...
watch your pictures and this ad
I sent message to this guy on Craigs list
Please don’t sell these as Araucana. They are Easter Eggers. Araucana never ever have muffs and I see muffs on that chick like a Ameraucana has

saw auction for Show Quality Bantam Araucana eggs. I saw olive legs on black birds and some white ears which she claimed was her Show and breeding stock. I sent question to seller. Got no response which I expected since I challenged her ad. Am I correct that there should be no white ear and that...
anyone in Mississippi, Louisiana, Florida or anywhere wants to drive to south Mississippi. I have to rehome All my birds Araucana. I have about 60. I have bred some pretty nice ones and have about 20 more chicks now. There are a few more that need culling.
Been trying to get better but had...
so happy they hatched while your grandchildren were there. What a cute picture. Mine always peek in the incubator when they are here to see if anything is hatching
I just couldn't help myself. I finally got some tufted birds after 2 yrs of non tufted hatching from purchased eggs or being sold chicks that were supposed to have some with tufts and didn't and had to do some of my own breeding. The best part is they cost me nothing but shipping!!!! I traded 6...
I love fat healthy chicks to. They are so much fun to raise in small numbers lol. Someone please beat me if I ever decide to hatch 48 chicks over winter again and raise inside. After a month it was not fun anymore
I need to ask a stupid question. I am going to sell a few non tufted tailed birds as blue egg layers. If one of the parents that produced these birds is rumpless but the(offspring) prs i am selling are both tailed would/could they produce some off spring that are rumpless. I ask only because...
here is a side view
For me they are well loved pets. I am new to the breed, only having them for 2 yrs now. I am not a Breeder, I do not know all the qualities they are supposed to have and I do not show. Although I did hatch a bunch over winter once I got some tufted birds this past fall to...
