thoughts on Blue Ameraucanas

[chicks are me]

we have three blue ameraucanas coming on april 15th or 16th and I'm so excited!

it took us about three or four months before we could even order them! Why do they have to be so popular? We only got three but it cost us about $60 total.
is that normal? and why do they cost so much? My mom says we should get a blue ameraucana rooster and sell the chicks.i almost agree, but are the roosters normally aggressive?


i'm glad its spring.

Pure bred amucaunas are very rare. Americana males a usually not agressive so I wouldn't worrry about that and if they are its more likey toward other rooster not people escipally not their owners but if he does give you troualbe grab him and pin him on his side with your knee and flick him in the head a few times so he know your boss. Hope this helps

Pips and Peeps have some great blue Ameraucanas and you can also go to the Ameraucana Club Forum there are some photos on there. I believe she posted some pictures here on the regular Ameraucana post.

You can order Blues from Paul Smith in Texas. He ships chicks. He may be sold out for the year, but can't hurt to ask and you could get in line for next year. He is an ABC club director.
