Ameraucana thread for posting pictures and discussing our birds

I'll get some better pics. It's on the outside edging of his "shoulders" it's almost not noticable, but it is there.

I'm on mobile, so hard for me to see anyways, lol...

But I agree with dstokely, close up pics would help, if you can, natural indirect light is best...

I had a blue roo I thought had leakage, he turned out to have some sun bleaching instead, so maybe????

Though I do know someone who has a blue with leakage........

Do any of you feed dog or cat food vs layer pellets/crumbles or flock grower?

I do add in cat food, but it is just an add-in, not a replacement for layer crumbles.

I have a Black Amerecauna named Midnight. She lays jumbo blue eggs, and is very sweet and friendly. She is also super cute!

Were they hiding them on you or did 8 girls all start laying the same day?

Those are from one hen, she is a sneaky girl.

Um, no

I would look at the ingredients and nutrition percentages on the different types. Only if they had relatively equal nutrients would I substitute dog or cat food for chicken food. But pet food tends to be more expensive so why do it?

I guess she is! Given you live in Spokane, it probably stayed above freezing right? If so you have 8 useable eggs there
