Araucana thread anyone?

Still waiting on the hatching eggs you ordered?

Yep, just sent her another email.

Is Bluebell laying?

She is. Her eggs are sometimes bullet shaped. I don't know if they will be good for hatching but I have been saving hers along with Mama's to put in the incubator with my ordered eggs. I'll go get a pic of one real quick...

The first one, you can hardly tell which end is the fat end. Sometimes they are long and narrow like that. @chickengr Do you think they are hatchable?

 

[Trish1974]

You can't really tell by the pic, but she lays the bluest eggs I have ever seen!

I sure hope my Araucanas will lay blue eggs like that!

my araucanas lay blue eggs but I prefer my easter egger eggs - darker and greenish.

I have an EE that is half brown leghorn, half wheaten Ameraucana, and she lays the BIGGEST most beautiful blue egg! She herself is small. It amazes me an egg that size can come out of such a small body.

Do you cross your Araucanas with Marans? (I'm assuming you have Marans from the egg in your avatar).

my EE is supposed to be ameraucana. unfortunately people in greece keep araucanas and ameraucanas together. she is blue/green egger, but mix of those 2.
