if I cant get started on my Barred Ameraucana look a like(with slate/dark shanks) I´ll probably start my blue egg layer porject again(I tried many years ago to breed ex battery leghorns and native ameraucana to produce blue eggs) this time I´ll make them look like your birds, a blue egger look a like using similar genes to obtain similar birds






hey guys I want to see hatching chicks coming out of large blue eggs just like some of my F1s hatched(except they hatched from large white eggs)
