Crowing
The last bird is not a Welsummer mix. That's a Partridge Wyandotte.I am new to chickens. My dad bought some last year. So this spring I wanted to add colored eggs to our flock. I read and read. I knew that most people selling Americanas were selling EE. So when I found out TSC had Ameraucanas I jumped on buying them....Ended up with two silkies. So in my irritation I ended up buying two older chicks from the feed mill. Again lacking experience, they are both cockerels. The blue wheaten is beautiful. But ultimately I'm looking for pullets. I'm not sure what to do with them. I haven't had anyone interested in them. The auction is so traumatizing. I have a lovely Welsummer X cockerel in third pic that I was planning on keeping. So far he has a great disposition and has been good with the older hens (he is 19 weeks old). I don't really have coop room to keep enough hens for two roosters. We have a large coop for 15 and then a smaller TSC coop that holds 4-6 I think that I used to introduce the newbies (the AMs are currently in that coop). I'm having a hell of a time finding Ameraucana pullets. I really don't want to raise chicks this late in the year.
For Ameraucana pullets, have you checked out the breed directories on the breed club sites?
