This is from my flock of lavenders. Roo is a large split black male from Pips n Peeps.
Hens are 1 black split from Pips n Peeps and 5 lavender hens from Backyard Farms.

Egg color ranges from blue to greenish. The hens have good type but two of them are small. Use of this roo should assist in gaining better bird size and egg color. I'd like to see a more clean comb on the roo but otherwise like his type.
I have full incubators so I'm letting these go.

I will shoot pictures later today and upload internet willing.

ok so uploading from here is failing so here are pics of them from last fall

love to see photos! How long will it take you to collect 24 eggs?
 
the hens are laying quite strongly and I'm getting 6 eggs a day. I have been alerted (sorry I didn't know this) that they should be three days or less so I'm going to reduce the auction to 18+ to keep to the three days or less rule. I am PMing those who have bid to alert them and allow them to retract if needed.


all chickens and eggs pictured are my own flock. Color is not accurate on my computer so bear in mind these eggs are light blue or blueish green. some are more green but I won't send you those.

I was just curious are your Ameraucanas friendly or are they skittish?
I have heard that there are different lines and there are some of each in pure Ameraucanas.
Also how many of the eggs are the blueish kind. Do you have any previous pictures that you could post of your eggs?
Thanks
 
egg pics are up. Thanks for asking. As far as socialization goes, these guys are like other chickens and motivated by food. If I hold out food they come investigate and sit at my feet. I'm sure I could make them lap chickens if I spent time on it. They are not curious about me as my d'uccles and they are quicker than say a silkie. But they are calm and relatively mellow.
