ramirezframing we'll have to make you a member of this thread and hopefully you'll run into your mom's friend that way.
Karen I had a friend in Union City, Alex who showed up at my job one day to show me his eggs. I saw them and said Amerauncana, because years and years ago I had bought some from the back of a magazine and
his laid the same as mine. Only when I started reading BYC did I see that the eggs should be blue only. Maybe our were Aruacnas, but I remember Amer......in the name. He was shocked I knw about the eggs. They were multi colored and swirled. Anything from gold to purple, blue, green, all together could be in those eggs and I was really disapponied when I started seeing just blue eggs on here. I posted about my eggs from years ago and someone suggested I contact a member here, so I pm'd him and then never heard anything. I think I did all that just before Bill died. I haven't really spent the time to find them again, although with colors of eggs I want, you'd think I would. The time Alex brought those eggs to show me, he wouldn't give any up. They were what he said was reallyextremely rare now and although I got to hold a couple that were swirls of purple, green and gold, I never saw another egg like that anywhere. Ever! They are what I wanted when I came back to chickens. Bill would ask why I hadn't bought them yet, but I told him I just couldn't find anyone with them. I had never gone to Alex or his gf's house, so don't know exactly where they live, but I really want those birds. When I had them is was like the 70's! It was like 1998 when I last saw Alex and he hadn't been feeling well, so not sure if I'll find him, but I want to so badly. There were a lot more colors than we see today back then. Maybe they were off colors, but they are what I've always wanted again.
OK gotta get Kayla to school and come back and tell everyone about my horrible windy day yesterday. Lots of damages and loss and I had been up for like 36 year when I finally past out last night.
