Bantam Wheaten Ameraucana

Could someone show me a picture of Bantam Wheaten Ameraucanas?

I would like to see what a good example of them would be, as far as their coloring, etc goes.

No blue wheaten, just Wheaten. Please?

Thank you

There not my birds there from http://www.ameraucana.org/
The first two are bantams the last two are standard large fowl.

Thank you!

I purchased my first pair of Bantam Wheaten Ameraucanas, and I wanted to compare them to breed quality.

I think my Roo could stand to be improved on.

The one on the site you linked for me is much more handsome.

Plus this is not a great pic of the pair I purchased.

Looking at them in comparison, my roo shouldn't even have white muffs???

Dag gone it.

Edited to correct my spelling so that the Ameraucana police don't get me!

If they are still young, his beard should change.

Yes, they are young. They were just hatched this spring, haven't had their first molt yet, and the little pullet hasn't started laying yet.​

Then he will still change quite a bit. The wheaten and blue wheaten cockerels take the longest to mature into their final adult plumage which makes them very expensive for me to raise.

So if you don't mind my asking, if you were selling a pair of Wheaten Ameraucanas, what's a fair price? Wondering if my purchase was a good deal or too good to be true? I paid $8 for my pair.

My chicks are $5.00 each..................

I think the hen in your avatar is just lovely, BTW!

So if I post a couple pictures of them in a few weeks, will you give me your opinions on them? Please?

Can the Bantam Wheaten Ameraucanas be sexed by wing feathers?
They are so similar I mark them with fingernail polish
