Love your set up. What a bunch of beautiful chickens.

I've seen a lot of dogs that like to eat chicken poop. I can't imagine that it tastes good! But the ones that eat seem almost addicted to it.I think it would be best to get a dog that picks up on training quickly over relying on any breed to stay true to its reputation. I'm still working on my GSD mix. She's finally picked up on the idea that she is not to be within a foot of any of my birds. Now she just eats their poop which has proven a much harder habit to break than picking up chicks and running around with them.
Are you planning on doing a side-by-side comparison of natural insemination vs artificial by any chance? I'd be curious to know how wide the gap is in fertility. I have read that some lines can reproduce naturally but I don't know how accurate that is.
Welcome! And for a dog Defenetly pyriness (i dont know how to spell it.) Dont make the mistake I did trying to train them. Other dogs still have that killing istint for fun.!Bryan, TX in the house!

I am looking for a REAL Ameraucana pullet in Texas, preferably in the Houston area or up to a couple of hours away. I really love the blues, lavenders and splashes but am open to other colors as well and love project birds as long as they will lay a blue egg. I tried to find one last year and bought a frizzled EE who ended up laying a brown egg. I have a very gentle breed mixed flock of four and am only looking for one bird. I can't believe how hard it has been to find one! If anyone has a single pullet or knows where I can get one, please pm me. I am willing to pay generously for the right bird.
like bnjrob said.! Just google ameraucana breeder club and go to breeders directory by state. In texas theres several breeders.I am looking for a REAL Ameraucana pullet in Texas, preferably in the Houston area or up to a couple of hours away.

Are you looking specifically for the breed or just a blue egg layer?
Mr King and bnjrob, thanks for the advice! I just sent out a couple of email to breeders in Texas but am still hoping someone will pop up a little closer to Houston. Most seem to be in DFW area.like bnjrob said.! Just google ameraucana breeder club and go to breeders directory by state. In texas theres several breeders.
