You may want to consider entering them into a show. That way you get assessment on body type from a judge.

Do you know of any shows in the NW Arkansas area? I have never shown poultry, but I would love to.

I agree with you............Very pretty birds...........My 10 will be here on Wednesday, Once they grow up, and if you still would like a black............Maybe we could trade birds?

Where are you located? We are in Missouri...........Once these arrive we will order 10 more...........We could only buy 10 at a time.

That would be cool. I live in Bentonville, Arkansas. I have actually been to Fredericktown, Mo. My ex's family lives in Potosi. You are about 6 hours away.

An fyi from my experience from breeding blue to blue or blue to splash ameraucanas....

I don't prefer to do it. I have found the resulting blue offspring from the above matings are very light in color (drab), and have poor lacing.

I think you would get better lacing if you had a black gened bird in there. I also think the color contrast would look outstanding!

From what I have read, I believe the desire is to have a bird with darker blue plumage.

This is too SWEET.............My 10 arrive on Wednesday........We are planning to order 10 more as each shipment arrives..............We could work together and come up with some awesome Birds!!!!

I'll keep you posted............My first 10 should be here Tuesday or Wednesday!

I did a search and the two I came up with were

April 5 in El Dorodo (saw it here)
and
May 3 in Charlseton (saw it here)

I am from CA, so I am not really familiar to what is going on in Arkansas, but I hope this is helpful.

i think your best bet would be find someone with this breed and color and send them a pm with the pictures and get a assesment that way.

I will keep my eyes open for a black-​
