I've always pronounced it "sir-omma" with the emphasis on the 2nd syllable. But i may've been wrong all this time
If you want to hear a breed with 47 pronunciations try asking how to say "Faverolles" lol
PS It's actually spelled Serama.

You guys w/ serema chickens I have a question is it pronounced sereeema or serema? (long e or short e on the middle e)?

it's actually spelled Serama, and pronounced either sir-am-a or sir-ah-ma lol

LOL that is probably why the spell check highlighted it.

Oh good, glad I was pronouncing 'Serama' right. It'll make up for all the other things that make me look like stupid :-D
And I have PIPS today! There's 20 eggs that made it to lockdown. I dropped the incububator lid on the eggs and broke about 6 Silkie eggs, I was so mad at myself. I've always try to be so dang careful and these things happen to me anyway. They were all growing except 1, too. It was at about day 5 so I sealed a couple with tape (didn't have a candle) but they died. I figured they would. But I have quite a mix-11 Silkie eggs (Blue Blk White) and 5 from my huge Brown Red Cochin boy and his Orloff hens and 3 jumbo sized eggs from the Easter Egger and my big Blue Cochin/ Ameraucana mix. He would be considerred an EE, too, right? They'll probably be Olive Eggers and I don't like that color egg at all
Anyway-my last hatch was Aug of 2012. So it's been 13 1/2 months! And I'm so excited and can't wait to watch the babies come out ))
I also won some really nice Brahma eggs on Ebay-Dark, Light and Gold Laced! Plus bought some Orloff eggs, I've got 12 Orloff girls but never had an Orloff boy. I love the breed. The Oriental Burmese Game eggs (that's what he called them) are set, too. I found some hatchery quality standard sized Dark Cornish eggs for a really good price and went ahead and bought those, too. I seriously can't hatch all these eggs, it's going to kill me to toss some if I don't have room.
