Well remember, splash Ameraucanas are not accepted by the APA yet so they can't be shown. Same with all colors of Isbars and with Cream Legbars. The Cream Legbar Club is working on it but it will be 5+ years before the qualifying show. But my blue and black Ameraucanas are SQ, and I'm producing some good BCMs and some bad, I'm hoping with the new stock I bought this last summer I will have more good than bad hatching out next spring. If you'll do local pickup rather than shipping prices will be lower than my website just FYI. Also you can get as few/many as you want if your local pickup, min order of 10 if I have to ship. We'll hook up in the spring!POOR CHICKEN!!!! We have a dog that occasionally gets the neighbors chickens. The boy will shoot it with a bb gun but that isn't going to keep it away. Sad to say but my husband wont tolerate it and will probably take care of the animal if it sets foot near our chickens. Have you talked to your neighbor about the dog killing your chickens? If you have show chickens or ones that you have paid a good amount of money for then you would think you could file a police report and let them know that it is their dog. If you don't do a camera system there are always those tree cameras that hunters use. Those are pretty reliable. Then you have proof that it is their dogs. Wave those in their face and threaten to sue them, maybe that will get them to think again? Poor chicken.
Lol! Yes splash is what I meant. Im not keen on the black ones but I like the look of the splash Ameraucanas! They are so pretty! I need to stop looking at your chicken breeds on your site or I'm going to want more! My list what I will want from you is Ameraucanas, French black copper marans, Isbar, and Cream Legbar. If possible I would like to buy day old Ameraucana and maran chicks then the other two breeds eggs. My husband is pretty picky on how much I buy my chickens for. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that I have a show quality chicken out of all of them since my daughter has shown interest in showing. Just let me know what I can order and what the costs are/quantity min. and I will start planning on an order.
I'll share pictures in a few weeks, the babies from Fisher's Farm just arrived this week so not much to see. I do have a 4 month old trio coming in the next week or two, exhibition quality from Cornerstone Farms in Virginia.
Oh Nana that is heartbreaking. Prayers for your family. That is such a tough thing to go through.
)) I can't believe the fertility I have with hatching my own eggs compared to shipped eggs, for whatever reason. I hope Stanely's babies make it out as easily as this 1st chick did. Here's a picture of Stanley I've posted before with 2 Silkie girls I got from Betsy 2 yrs ago. I know he'd never make the show circuit but he's sweet as can be.
