Ameraucana thread for posting pictures and discussing our birds

Yes.  The Blue Wheaten roos look like my Wheaten roo, but with the blue coloring where the black feathering is.  The females are quite light.

they are beautiful! !!! I have 15 in the bator as we speak due to hatch for Easter. Fingers crossed! !!!!

Does any one have any pictures of brown red ameraucanas they can post?

Check out the Ameraucana breeders club website www.ameraucana.org , they have a picture of brown reds. I would copy and paste it for you but I am on my phone

Link to Brown Red hen and rooster. These are ones you rarely see, for sure.

To bad no one seems to ship brown red eggs

I consider them really rare, would love to have some years down the road

Are any of these Ameraucanas, or are they all Easter Eggers?

they may be easter eggers but i really like the first one from the left.

Thanks FVRM. I'm hoping to breed them and maybe eventually get into showing, so I've been lurking and reading as much as I can.

did you hatch them or buy them grown?

did you hatch them or buy them grown?

I bought two chicks from a breeder here in Maryland,whose birds lay the most beautiful blue eggs I've seen. They both turned out to be roos, so that is where the roo came from. A couple of months later I bought a couple of 8 week old pullets from another breeder here in Maryland....didn't want to take the chance on ending up with more boys that time!

Don't know why people say the Ameraucana is a poor laying bird. Mine is the most consistent layer along with my barred rock. She gives me a beautiful blue egg ever day!
Love her! Should have named het Spunky!
