Hello everyone...I am from Texas and I use to raise chickens also....I had just a few Ameracaunas and a couple of Buff Orpingtons and a couple other breeds...That is , until the raccoons got every last one of them....I did have some beautiful Lavander Ameracaunas and I was sick when I lost them...To say the least of what I paid for them..These eggs were very expensive.......I had one LA that was so tame I picked her up all the time...She was beautiful but only laid one Egg...It was a real small blue egg ( I still have it), but she never laid anymore again....Never could find out why...I did keep her in a pen by herself , trying to keep her safe, but that didn't work either!.......Anyway, I plan on getting more chickens AFTER I try to find a way to keep the raccoons out....Thought I had it licked, only to lose the last four I had....I sure miss my chickens....Anyway, hello to all from Texas.....Donna
