Ameraucana thread for posting pictures and discussing our birds

[jendodd79]

A batch came to me as Blue Wheaten Americaunas, but I'm starting to think they are EEs! Thoughts from the experts?

2 week olds












1 Week olds from the first 2 pictures! How do they grow so quickly!!

Looks like ee's to me.

I wonder who keeps selling these????

Whoever you got your chicks from you need a refund. I saw your post in the BLRW thread and those chicks don't even look close. Where did you get them?

I've got 6 BBS Ameraucana roosters, and I need to get rid of all but one (MAYBE two). They are the first of this breed I've raised, and I'd appreciate your help in deciding which one is a keeper. These pics were taken when they were 3 months old (about a month ago).

They are easter eggers and if you want true ameraucanas, I would get rid of all of them.

Really? The lady who sold them to me is selling them as show quality pure bed Ameraucana. Here is her website. http://okiecritters.com/Chickens.html

The pictures on her website she has some birds without muffs. The yellow green legs are a give away. So sorry.

I will...he has great personality. I got those eggs from peachick . while I get weathens for him to put him in a separated pen he can stay in my ees pen to improve the egg color.

But I want purebred girls for him. Right now he is still inside the house because I'm over protective of this 100 dollars chick. But I'm glad at least i got something out of those expensive eggs.
