Ameraucana thread for posting pictures and discussing our birds

[pips&peeps]

Keep the one that has a 45 degree tail angle, with the tighter feathers, higher wing carriage and the one that is closest to 6.5 lbs.

Donna- have you weighed them? How many pens are you going to have going? You can have more than one roo in a pen if they've grown up together. I know you said the big guy was kinda bullied though.
Are you giving them back to somebody?

I got a TON of birds and am splitting them with someone. I have my pick really... We just agreed that she would take two Lav roos.... Should I try to keep both?

I can have two pens if needed

or I can swap out the roos and hatch from both. I have not weighed them... I will take my scale in the morning. I will not be around a computer so if he weighs too much what should I do?

I want them both

If there is ANY possibility of keeping both - I would absolutely keep both.

(My brother is driving through Nashville at some point tonight. I would SO love to have him stop by and take one of them off your hands for you. Either one ....

They don't have feathered legs and with that dew you have up there..... they need to stay here!

I have clean legged Ameraucanas!!!!

Even my funky Canadian dew can't put feathers on those legs.

(I have a cousin in Nashville. A road trip may be in order in the not too distant future. Eggs are MUCH easier to bring home than birds!!!!)

Yeah one might decide to do something silly like, I don't know, DIE? and then what would you do? You need a backup. Also what are you going to cross the daughters of one on? Viola! The other one! Promise your friend chicks later; they are much cuter than adult roosters anyway.

This is just for fun and I hope you appreciate my humor, but ask your friend, would she rather have #1 or....#2

That's a pretty ticked off looking bird, isn't it
