Araucana thread anyone?

Agree with @Brahma Chicken5000 She sells chicks in lots of 10, various colors. I think that would be a great way for a newbie to get started. Keep what you want and sell the rest.
I'll be applying for NPIP certification in May or June, but probably won't have anything to sell until fall.

Does the link lead to blueskyfamilyfarms.com? It seams to be Rhode Island reds eggs for eating.

So my Araucana pullets are now just over 13 weeks old and I want to move them to my spare coop so they can start to become acquainted with their new flock.
I leave the window in my room open during the day so they have been acclimating to the weather. I’m just nervous to leave them outside over night.

Here’s the weather for today

And here’s the weather for the next week.

What do you guys think? Should I leave them outside in the spare coop during the day and have them sleep inside my house at night?

Ugh, that is one of my biggest pet peeves!!! I might have to send them a nasty little note tonight when I get a chance!

One of my pet peeves too. Right up there with hatcheries that try to sell their Easter Eggers as true Ameraucanas.

I would watch them. I don't know how hardy araucanaa are in US but mine have been somewhat weak as chicks. I would keep them warm at cold nights. there is a big difference in temperature between house and coop. they should acclimate gradually. extra caution will not harm.
