    Hatchery vs breeder araucanas

    Hello! I had a really unfortunate hatch this weekend and had only 1 Bielefelder chick make it (with cross beak and one eye). "Gloria" needs a little guidance on what to do as a chicken, and all my others are way older, and I won't be hatching again till June, so I've been contemplating going...

    Good morning all, Does anyone know of any breeders/hatcheries that would sell blue egg layers, preferably as pullets/hens? I'm in south-western Ontario, for reference. As a side question, I've been told that chicks or hatching eggs would likely be my only option for any of the above breeds...

    BO x EE cross laying bantam sized eggs

    I have a pullet that is half Buff Orpington and half Easter Egger. She looks like a BO, but with green legs. She has started laying, but the eggs are tiny blue eggs the size of bantam eggs.
