Granny's gone and done it again

Never really underst00d why people didnt want to eat meat. We wasnt designed that way.
 
Gosh I forgot about thousand island. Now I have to go 30 miles to Arby's cause no one else here eats that.
 
Quote: That's interesting to know how long EEs have been around! I wonder if the breeders came up with the name Ameraucana, and now the hatcheries are using it for EEs. I always thought it was the other way around, but I bet not. I can understand the breeders trying to keep things clear, especially since the breed is so new, I just don't think that should come at the expense of good manners.

I first ran across them in the early 90's when I got 3 chicks. The sign on their cage said they were Araucana, but the man gleefully corrected me to say they were Ameraucanas! Only one was an SOP color (wheaten), but they all laid blue eggs. They were very nice birds.

Has the ABA accepted bantam Ameraucanas? Was just wondering. If the the bantams are supposed to be a smaller version of the large fowl, they should have pea combs (not rose combs).

These are my 2 Ameraucanas I got from a breeder. The buff is Poppy and the wheaten is Dash.







Poppy's first egg!












Dash was named for being a scaredy cat. She would run away from the camera! See her back there?
 
Just got off work. All I'm going to say is I should have called in sick. Kids are nuts, there's testing going on in 2/3 grades I work with and kindergarten went on a field trip. Tomorrow can't be over soon enough.
