Just so everyone knows before they think I am some sort of moron, this is my first experience with Araucanas. I was expecting a huge comb like my Cornish X and White Leghorn has.

Oh well, thanks for the help.....now I think I should post pics of the others in case anyone else starts crowing. Maybe thats why I'm not getting any eggs, lol

Hey you are new to chickens do not worry about it. people make them mistake with the EE all the time. Hatcheries do not sell the breed Araucan or amercauana they just sell EEs. Lots of people think they are getting the real breed when it is just a mix. Just do a bit of reading on those breed and you will see what I am refering too.

This is who I was comparing the Araucana's comb to. Oh well.... lol This is Clucky, my Cornish X roo.

 

[AHappychick]

oh yes that makes just about all chooks look like girls

no wonder.

post some pics of the flock we all love to guess at sexes

 

[carolina chicky]

I will do that because I have one or 2 others who I am wondering about now
I appreciate everone's help (even though some probably got a laugh at my expense

)
Thanks!!!
