I have three 3-week old bantam silkies I’ve had since they were 1 day old. I am getting four bantam Ameraucanas on Sunday that were born this Monday. So the new chicks will be six days old and my older chicks will be 3.5 weeks.
I’m planning to spend the whole day Sunday being able to...
I am searching for a loving chicken mom near Lancaster, Pa that would be willing to take a blue Ameraucana rooster ( if he turns out to be one). It is 5 weeks old and I'm 90% sure it is going to be a roo. In that case I need to rehome him. I am looking for someone who will not kill him and will...
This lovely boy almost died on me when he was little due to sour crop. I didn’t know what I was doing at the time as I was fairly new to poultry but now he’s growing to be a strong roo! He’s a sweetheart but super timid.
I have a Blue Ameraucana rooster, 1 Blue Ameraucana hen, and 2 EE hens. Both EE hens are laying colored eggs; one lays an almost identical blue to my Ameraucana hen, one lays a nice minty green. I'm wanting to breed my roo to these 3 ladies to produce more colorful egg layers but would the...
So i hatched these chicks a few days ago but theres this one, They're mom is a salmon faverolle and their dad is SUPPOSED to be a salmon faverolle ameracauna mix but this little chick doesnt look like dad or mom or any of their other siblings who are just yellow. Theres another rooster in the...
I had made an account here to ask about my sick hen (who is doing very well now, I really appreciate these forums!), and I got to questioning what breed she really is. The guy running the feed store who sold us our chickens said that he had Australorp, Rhode Island Red, and Ameraucana chicks...
Looking for tips to breed olive Eggers with the most pigmented green possible. Looking to produce the greenest eggs
I was thinking of using BBS Ameraucana hens and a Marans rooster or vice versa - opinions on this please
Can I get the greenest eggs in an F1 cross?
What shade of brown...
My ameraucana molted at 9 months old in mid September, finished by mid November. We’re in Austin, TX for geographical reference. She STILL has not laid an egg. Is this normal? I feel like it’s not. Is there anything I can do to help her get her egg cycle going again? I’m more concerned for her...
Hello all! I am looking for hatching eggs to grow my flock. I am interested in bantam Ameraucana and Bantam Welsumers. I can pickup within two hours of 39465, Petal MS, or I’m open to having them shipped ☺️
Please help!!
So I adopted 3 hens from a co worker. She said they were Ameracauna. One of them lays blue color eggs and I think the other 2 lay greenish/tan eggs. Could they actually be EE? Or mixes? Something else?
I guess the lavender one started out as a beautiful lavender color and now looks more like a...
Hey all! With the colder weather approaching, a couple of my girls are going through some pretty gnarly molting. One of my Easter eggers hasn’t been laying for the last couple weeks(I know this because she is the only one out of 16 chickens who lays very light brown eggs) due to her molt. Two...
Hey all!!
I’ve got two Swedish Flower Hen pullets I’m looking to sell, unfortunately they aren’t the color I was wanting in the breed and I want to keep my flock as small as I can while living in the city.
Both SFHs are pullets and the Amerauacana splash is a cockerel. The two SFHs I’d prefer...
I am wondering about the age/signs of egg laying first time chicken owner here. They are 23 weeks old, we live in Michigan though. Will they lay this fall yet??
I bought 4 chicks from TSC. Two are barred rocks and two were supposed to be NH reds. When neither of the chicks turned red, I looked on the internet and came across pics of Americana’s or EE that looked identical to mine as babies. Are these Americana’s/EEs? I know they aren’t reds 😂 they are 4...
Hi, so I bought some assorted blue-egging pullets and ended up with four Ameraucanas, two of witch are cockerels. This pullet is the only one without a beard so I'm assuming she's an Easter Egger. Can anyone confirm this?
I have an Ameraucana chick that has developed cross/scissor beak so I've been mixing up baby bird formula and chicken food for her to eat. She (not sure the gender yet but I'm hoping for a pullet) comes to the door when she's hungry and has been consistently gaining weight. She's still half the...
I have a young ameraucana chick that my broody hen hatched a few days ago. I know that it is really really hard to tell what gender they are when they are this age, but it is our favorite chick and so we are just dying to know. The pictures aren't very good, so I'll try to get more soon. Thanks!
A while ago, i decided to try and hatch some chickens from our flock. I let 7 eggs incubate. all of these eggs were mixed with white crested black polish, as that was our only roo. of 7 eggs, 5 hatched. i was so happy about this. we hatched:
2 white ameraucana eggs
1 buff ee egg
1 white silkie...
