What's wrong with their feathers?

Curiosity is the essence of intelligence if one is curious about how something occured that is apparently as unique as this no matter the breed well then..........

<---- I hope to breed them. I have a half dozen developing in my still air hovabator, so we know what a crap shoot that can be...

As we speak I am crossing a blue splash roo from show lines, but with color faults, on a white hen with very blue eggs, which will hopefully erase (I mean disguise) the color faults and brighten up the egg color of the show line, which is weak. Once I get white Ameraucanas breeding true, I plan to try to make white silkied ameraucanas. That will take a while, I know, but that is my plan for now.

White silky Ameraucanas...ooooo

Well now I'm super excited cause I found two local LF Ameraucana breeders. I'm imagining my breeding pens with birds from them and some of these silkied ones....and I don't even have any eggs yet

But at least I've got my resources when I'm ready for it

The bators (all 4 of them!) are broke in some way or another, but we're working on that.

One day...

White would be beautiful! I've had others interested in trying for lavender, and blue wheaten. I will be working on a line of blue/black for now along with a few other breeders.

I have a friend incubating some lavenders also, LF, maybe I could give those a whirl. I believe her eggs are direct from Duane Urch.

Oo, I might have to order some eggs next year

These are some beautiful chickens

When I get my eggs (and hopefully hatch ALL of them) I'm going to breed them back to my Wheaten Ameraucanas (from pips&peeps) to make blue Wheatens. Then I can cross those back to the Silkied ones to get Silkies blue Wheatens. It should be very interesting!
