Silkie Splash Ameraucanas

[alicefelldown]

With help from Jubaby I've created a chart of the current breeding going on with these birds! Diagrams make everything so much easier lol. The dates in parenthesis are the hatch dates. Eventually I want to get a google doc going with these charts for everyone else that is going to be breeding these things so we can compare notes and maybe even trade back to keep the bloodlines strong, yet diverse.

From my end at least, I'll be mixing the chicks I hatch from Jubaby with good Ameraucanas that I'll be hatching in March or April, so I should be at the same status in breeding as Jubaby when she gets her new hens for Ozzie. The outcomes from that will then be penned with their opposite sexed parent for some 4th gen chicks.

So, I ask again, how do I get in on this project?

I have some Wheaten Ameraucanas that I would LOVE to breed these to to make the blue wheatens.
