Im no expert, but Id say 2 girls, 4 boys.

3-6 are boys for sure. Can't really tell with 1 and 2. They are probably girls. The light is throwing me off s bit. If you can photograph 1 and 2 in natural light we can confirm.

Does anyone have 1 or 2 Wheaten/Blue Wheaten hens or pullets that they want to sell me?

We unfortunately had a run in with a predator and I lost 2 girls.

I'm willing to pay for shipping and postage.

Thanks guys.

Thank you Jerry! That pretty much knocks me out of shipping birds anytime soon. NPIP here in WA state is very cost prohibitive and we only have one state vet that can do the testing for the whole state. No private testers at this time, I wish they would allow that. Is this blood test something a regular vet can do if they work with birds? What are they testing for exactly? Thanks in advance!


Thank you Cottage and Happy. He was a nice boy.

IM SO MAD! I just lost two of my ameraucana bantam hens!! I'm so ticked! Now i need to find some replacements....

Ugh I hate the winter

They test for pollurm/typhoid.Il.dropped the state vet except for npip sign up.We have to have a private tester do our yearly test.It was a big mess.They were poorly trained and did not put my npip # on the test nobody was checking and I was dropped without notice and then my # was put on the next test and I get a nasty letter from the state.I told them you trained them and they made the mistake not me.I am now a private tester.If I make a mistake I can take the blame but blameing me when someone else makes the mistake just will not cut it.
