I don't have an incubator, I was just looking into buying one and giving hatching a try.

Welcome to TN!  My folks retired to Savannah about 8 years ago - they love it there (transplants from West Texas).  I'll check to see if the folks have heard of anyone with ameraucanas...I know some folks near Nashville, but not from that neck-of-the-woods...  Oh, and if no one in Savannah has told you, AG&N b/t Crump and Adamsville is a great feed store (my folks used to get so aggravated at the Co-op in Savannah).

Thank you! I will check them out. I found co op to be cheaper than tractor supply on grain, but figured those were my only choices. Glad to know there is something else

Hello - just found this thread. I am in Columbia and just decided to try chickens again. I presently have 3 RIR girls who are about 14-16 weeks old (my middle son's Christmas present from his girlfriend), 4 little EE got from the farm supply store here in Columbia, they said they are Araucana's but I don't think so as they have definitely have tails and puffy cheeks and no tufts, and a 1 year old rooster who is a strange looking guy, think he is probably a cross between Araucana and Ameraucana maybe. They had some grown roosters and hens for sale and of course I felt sorry for him because he was a lot smaller than the other roosters and so now he lives here.

Anyway, just wanted to say Hi.

And that's what is called "chicken math". Welcome!

 

[ddhyland]

Yep it is - hubby says I can't go back there until chicks are all gone

. That's ok though because I think I really want to get some full blooded Ameraucana's.
