Where can I find araucanas

[LadiesAndJane]

Thank you. I do breed Araucana but am currently closed for the foreseeable future.

Sorry to read this. Hope everything is OK with you and yours.

Why? If you don't want to tell me you don't have to but I'm just curious as to why..

Thank you. Your post means a lot to me right now. I had two pullets die mysteriously wasting away this summer and I sent the second one to state lab for necropsy. She was suspected of having Marek’s or Lymphoid Leukosis. I emphasize “suspected” because the findings were not conclusive. There was no evidence of either. After reading and discussing with several people, I’m leaning toward LL and have suspended sales. I’m still working with my flocks. There were other issues I wasn’t aware of like metal feeders and using topical Cydectin for parasites that didn’t seem to be effective so I’ve made some changes. No other illnesses have appeared and the population of my Araucana, Peace hens and Shetlands are increasing.

We are doing well, I just can’t share the fruit of our labor any longer.

I am so truly sorry for your losses.
You must be devastated. From reading your posts, it seems we share similar philosophies regarding animal care and I can only imagine how you must feel. Must be hard not knowing exactly what happened.
Sending love and light your way.

after the initial shock, panic, and mind-bending anger... in that order.... I'm finding peace. Ironically not much has changed - no other sick chickens and my broodies are raising their chicks... except now when I bring in these beautiful eggs there is no awaiting human to hatch them.

Check EBay too. They're only eggs though and they aren't guaranteed to have great hatches, but it's better than nothing
