HI. I had a few questions I was hoping you might answer for me. I recently purchased 26 chicks at an auction. We had 17 Rhode Island Reds and 9 Americaunas. The plan was to keep the pullets for eggs and butcher the cockerals when they got big enough.
Now they are getting old enough to take on permanent color and for us to tell male from female. We ended up with 2 solid white female Americauna pullets and a solid white Americauna cockeral. My wife says these are rare and would like to separate them to breed.
My first question is this: Will all of her chicks end up solid white?
My second question: Being that solid white Americaunas are rare, is there a market for them?
I would appreciate your feedback. Thank you for your time.
