Ameraucana thread for posting pictures and discussing our birds

[nakanich]

I'd say two pullets as well.

Also, you have some REALLY nice looking birds there. Truly beautiful

Thank you! I hatched them from eggs I received from kraftyladies.

Actually, I got them from Papas Poultry in Redding CA!

Amazing service, I ordered 5 eggs and got 4 extras! Not to mention that they were shipped priority and got to my house in excellent condition in less than 2 days!

Big props to this establishment, I know where I'll be going next time I want a batch of Ameraucanas

I ordered Swedish Flower Hens and Mille Fleur Leghorns from Jeff (Papa) and had a similar experience. Well packed and plenty of extras. Had an excellent hatch as well.

Yeah someone on FB said that too

darn... I was hoping for a breeding trio or at least ONE true ameraucana hen... Oh well... I have an olive egger as well, so hopefully this one gives me blue eggs.

You'll need to go to a breeder. You'll never find a true Ameraucana in a bin at a store, no matter what the label is on the bin.

Well I thought I would add to the thread.

I just got a 3.5 month old blue ameraucana cockerelfrom sunnyside up micro farm. And I love him. So far he has no problem with me holding him and gets along great with all my chickens. They range from 8 weeks to 5 weeks so not much age difference. Some bantams and full size. any ways here he is don't mind me holding him. Daughter holding a 5week bantam cochin. Son in second pic just posing with me cause he wanted to be in a pic lol.

i ordered blue and white ameraucanas from him. He is very noce. I also got extras. I didnt have a very good hatxh thought. bit i know that wasnt his fault. I also got mine shipped all the way to indiana. So they had a long 2 day journey. 1 egg was broken but very well wrapped.

Hi, can anyone tell me if these are male or female? They are 7 weeks old now. From reading this thread, I am thinking roos, but hoping for pullets! They are supposed to be blue Ameraucana's Thank you!

The whitish one could be a pullet but the black one definitely looks like a roo.

He looks nice, and great looking kids! It is great when they can grow up with animals.
