12 Ameraucana Hatching eggs

[Hennypen]

Beautiful Wheaten Ameraucana Hatching eggs.

I will ship on Mondays and maybe Tuesdays if the hens lay enough eggs for two shipments I will not ship eggs that are older than 2 days old. Send me a private message.

One dozen eggs are $60 + Shipping will be $20. (priority mail large flat rate box +packing). Total = $80.

This line originated from "peachick" here on BYC. These Ameraucanas are several generations from the original chicks that I hatched from 'peachick' eggs. When you receive the eggs, they will have turned more green than blue. I have noticed that age does make the eggs change colors. The blue egg is the freshly laid egg and they eventually take a green tint. Do not be upset, that's the way these eggs work.

If it was a chick I would be all in!

My chicks sell locally for $8. each and to ship I'd have to sell a minimum of 20 day old chicks per shipment.

Im confused. You have pictures of the bluest eggs ive seen, then in the fine print you say they will be green when one recieves them. Can you provide a picture of what the eggs will look like after they turn color. Thanks

First off all, there is NO "fine print". The blue color is what they look like freshly laid. I used my iPhone camera so no filter was used.

One in the daylight shade, one in bright sun. Indoor photos under florescent lights. The carton of eggs is straight from the refrigerator. The single egg with the March 1 date is an egg I just took a picture of that's about ready to hatch.

I'm trying to be as honest as I can about the color change so nobody expects blue blue eggs when they open the box. Stobu1, you only have two posts so I doubt you're familiar with egg color and exactly how it changes, but for example, take the freshly laid Croad plum-pink egg. Go do research on that color and how it changes. That plum skin color is only seen in freshly laid eggs and then disappears. I think a similar thing happens with the ameraucana eggs. When I first opened my peachick eggs from several years ago, I was disappointed and I even wrote that the eggs were not the same color as the pictures. Now I know why. They are freshly laid as blue blue and then change as they age.

Mondays eggs shipment are sold already. Next dozen will be dependent on how many the hens lay for a Tuesday shipment.

Those are large fowl, right?

Just now seeing this, yes these are large fowl.

I'm closing this so I can open a listing for sebastapol goslings. If anyone is interested please pm me.
