First Ameraucana Egg!

[Dray67]

Well the wait is over and my nervious little Ameraucana pullett is now a HEN! She laid her first little pullet egg this morning. Itis such a pretty color much darker then i could get a pic of. Turquoise really but nothing i would call green. She is a black Laventer split. She was a cull from a breeder that was only growing out the biggest chicks. She was hatched Labor day week end. so she is at about 20 weeks.

New pic she made 3 now!

All four of my Ameraucana girls started laying this week.. One is the palest blue, two are very blue and one is a minty blue.. It is so exciting to get the different colors... My girls are 37weeks old...So I waited a LONNNNNgg time.

Congrats! Always exciting to get your first blue egg.

I remember mine. . . . It was actually green at first which really panicked me, but as that pullet continued, her eggs turned blue in just 3 more days. Whew.



btw - Your Ameraucana is still a pullet.

Pullets are females under 1 yr old. Hens are 1 yr old and older.
