That's how you spell "Easter egger" Ameraucana. I know folks get frustrated when they write and ask if I have any "americana" and I give the spiel about the difference and then ask which they prefer. Both are ligit... for different uses. I just really try to get them not to buy and then breed Americana (EE's) and then sell them as Ameraucana.

On this, we can start a thread on our own poultry pet peeve =:~) What a list that would be. I am sure I am guilty of many!

I have no clue if we even have truffles around here! 

We do! I've even been truffle hunting and found a fair number of truffles. It was so cool!


My dad LURVES pigs! He wanted us to start pigs this past spring, but we got so busy with the chickens it couldn't happen. Now one of our farm supervisors wants goats to help tend the property, but I'm pushing for pigs because I think they'd do a better job at what we want, Dad loves them, and ... BACON!

I wish we were ready to buy some pigs now. What a fun road trip that would be!

Actually, I've got my fingers crossed that the Cuckoo Marans are female ... Until one crows or pops out an egg, I'm going to keep on hoping!

Also, I thought we had decided to NOT bring any adult birds onto the farm ... just day-olds or eggs. I'd hate to lose the whole flock ...
