A true Ameraucana would be a better sire, as long as he is from a line that lays blue, not greenish eggs. Rumpless birds often have fertility issues, seem the tail helps a lot with balance.
Another great option would be a Cream Legbar. It really depends on what other traits you are trying to fix because those birds are so different in many other traits. Obtain the blue egg laying bird that is closest to what other traits you are breeding for, getting rid of a pea comb, for instance, is a lot more work than just starting with a Legbar.

thanks, I have legbars that I hatched Sunday, and Ameruacana eggs hatching 14/15. I wanted to see which I like better before I start breeding in the winter. I am also reading and asking opinions. That do your auto sexing birds and eggs look like?
I am going to use one of the two with my non heritage RIR for green egg layers, and one with White and brown Leghorn. I also have some Barred Rocks for one of the two. It comes down to demeanor hardiness with MO weather extremes and egg laying.

Thanks! I'm not giving up. Already have 12+ eggs in there again.

This is my third hatch only and this has been my worst hatch ever so actually I'm wondering if my thermometers/hygrometers are off. Anyone know any easy way to calibrate them?

Chaos replied while I was driving with the best advice. . For the next ones.

@Sally Sunshine I did not know there was a section on genes. That will make good reading tonight.
