I would love to get acouple of ameraucana chicks but was wondering if they are good winter survivers? I live in VT where it gets pretty cold in the winter months!

You bet they can ditch out any kind of weather you give them! All of mine are HARDY and never had a frostbite on their toes or combs.
 
They are probably one of the most cold-hardy breeds. Mine run into the snow when I open their door in the winter mornings. They seem to love it. My other breeds, usually take a peak outside and then turn around and go back to their roosts.
 
I'm going to be finding out how hardy they are in heat this summer.
 
They are good all around chickens. Good in cold weather and with a light good layers in the winter.
