Thanks! I'd assumed we would get the cicadas, but just looked at a map, and we're barely outside the zone. Maybe you could ship some down?I'm so glad you made it up there, and are happy with your chicks! My four are over a year old now, and laying so many eggs. They've been happy and healthy. Right now they're feasting on cicadas... do you have those down there? Good luck with your coop!
Not being familiar with them, I'm not entirely sure (assuming they're true Ameraucanas). Photos attached.I know this isn't the point of the thread, but I'm obsessed so just have to ask. What variety did you get?
So cute! The second one is gorgeous! Though they're actually EEs not Ameraucanas, you can tell by the green legs, and the nonstandard patterns.Not being familiar with them, I'm not entirely sure (assuming they're true Ameraucanas). Photos attached.
I only recently realized that there are varieties of Ameraucanas, and the hatchery didn't describe them by variety.
Unfortunately, one of them appears to be a cockerel. I got 2 Ameraucanas and 4 others. 5/6 appear to be pullets. The suspected cockerel has a redder, larger comb, is more assertive, and is starting to make crowing attempts.
The one with the grey head is the suspected cockerel (as of last week).
If anyone in NoVa wants a rooster, let me know. I'll try to re-home him, but it's likely I'll have to cull him.
I had tried to mentally prepare myself for this necessity as part of having chickens, but I was hoping it wouldn't arise so soon
