    Araucana thread anyone?

    Sure looks like a splash to me; I have gotten a lot of splash this year and that right there is what they look like. I have three beautiful double tufted splash and a few perfect double tufted chicks out of the AOV pen but not a single tufted blue or black - those have all been clean faced...

    Araucana thread anyone?

    Oh Lanae - it's just awful - so sad to loose chickens that way. I have gotten so many phone calls lately from people who bought chicks from me in the first months of chick season and have lost all or nearly all of their babies to predators these past couple of weeks. Before our dogs it was so...

    Araucana thread anyone?

    I hope that no one minds me posting this here - it IS Araucana related in that we have enough trouble keeping these darned birds alive without the added stress of predators....... Callie killed another Raccoon last night - by golly I love this dog! If I could take out a billboard praising...

    Araucana thread anyone?

    It is far and away better than some of the other descriptions that I have read - certainly more imaginative. "Bunny Tails" !!!

    Araucana thread anyone?

    The only thing that I can think of is to be sure that there is plenty of other interesting and safe things in their environment for them to pick and peck at. They do so like to pick at stuff. Were there any tufts to start with - before the others picked them out? It's so common for them...

    Araucana thread anyone?

    Do I laugh or do I cry? Laugh or Cry?????? Clearly they are trying. They have missed the mark though. Why is this so hard for the hatcheries to understand? Perhaps i am jumping the gun though - where they in fact selling easter egg chicks along with this description, or is this just them...

    Araucana thread anyone?

    I hated our geese. Loved them when they were babies and so cute it hurt - hated them when they drew blood on my son and we had to fence them away from the humans. Killed them the day I looked out my window and saw one enormous goose standing on my dear sweet Wyandotte hen while the other three...

    Araucana thread anyone?

    Now that's not nice! I made myself promise myself no more shipped Araucana eggs; I have had such wretched hatch rates out of them. You're chicks are so, so , so , so lovely!!!!!!! I hope the auction goes very well for you.

    Araucana thread anyone?

    Seriously though - if these were normal hatch rates and tuft rates, then Araucanas would be one of the most popular breeds out there. They have so much going for them and then you "hit the wall" of their miserable fertility issues and that's where so many people give up. That's just such an...

    Araucana thread anyone?

    Araucana eggs too dark to candle is exciting! I get a little bummed when mine are so lightly colored that I can see right in.
