OK, I'll try to get some started. I'll use a few techniques.

Yes mine is the common one. I got it at a local nursery. Grows incredible fast, but where it's at; doesn't spread. I have to give it several haircuts a year and 1 crew cut each winter.

btw- I'm also giving the 5 leaf Akebia a crew cut also.

Oh yeah, I have Ancona ducks eggs. They are a dual purpose breed. Kate - remember I told you I would give you some this year when you hatched some for me last year? Let me know if you want some.

Ohh, yeah, I HAD forgotten, and I'd love some, with one caveat. I'm having neck surgery on March 16, so I wonder if it would be possible to have them just before that, so I have a few weeks to recover so I can enjoy the babies? (Do you want any more hatched or are you going "Natural")

Hi All

[COLOR=FFA500]I'd really like to get your help.[/COLOR]  I thought I'd found a source for a Blue Wheaten Ameraucana that would lay a blue egg, not green. But...

So now I'm on the search again.  I contacted Jean (pip

Any reason for the particular age you listed? Seattle Farm Supply gets their Ameraucanas (fancy EEs LOL) from Cackle Hatchery. He's got 3 days old chicks in stock right now.

Unfortunately, those probably won't lay blue eggs. You need to get them from a breeder who is breeding blue egg layers to be sure that you will get blue eggs. So EE's aren't going to be what she wants.

Mine do.

You got really lucky! Mine are sometimes closer to torquoise blue than green, then another day, it's more light sage green. Lol!

It's just that it's a gamble and some people want to be assured they will get blue egg layers. I would love one that lays a pink egg.

Mine do.

You have been pretty lucky then, but it's not the way to bet. They are a lovely blue too!
