Today I wrapped up grow out coop #2…installing the doors. I’ve decided I hate doors, they never come out like I plan. I measured so many times and was still off so much I ended up adding extra wood to the frame 😣 They look pretty good despite all the trouble though :) Some of the babies seemed...

Those Leghorns sound like independent ladies! My bantam Bielefelder Baby Bee is that way! She escaped the run every day and wanders the yard by herself all day, then comes to the patio to roost at night. So every night she’s escorted to her coop…😍 Naughty girls but so cute!

Ohhh I hope it’s nothing serious like that 😣 Sounds like you’re doing all the things, so I’m hoping it’s enough! 🤞🏻🤞🏻 I’m glad that everyone else is behaving and staying well though…knock on wood! How are you doing? You staying healthy and healing from the injuries you sustained awhile back...

No! You tell Stanley that is NOT allowed! He needs to rest and recover quickly as he is needed and loved! Maybe some herbals would do him some good? Poor you! They just don’t wanna stay healthy for you! I hope it’s a passing thing and goes away with some extra love and rest!

OOPS!! Well you have beautiful 9-week-old grow outs!! :D

Really? These aren't bantams? They look like them! Haha...pictures are deceiving. Or maybe my eyes just see bantams now ha!

Some of my BBS bantam grow outs 😍 Plus the last two pics are two FREE pullets a woman gave me 😍 The brown red girl appears to be beardless, but Fudge is a really pretty girl 🥰 Gotta love free Ameraucanas!

The Isabels really are gorgeous!! 😍😍 Your bantams are so pretty.

Blue is actually incomplete dominant (only needs one copy to show blue color), so a lavender bird could also be blue if the breeder mixed pens. Lavender is double recessive so you need to have both birds to give a copy in order for lavender to cover the base color of the bird. So while lavender...

They’re a really nice little bird! 😍 Perfect for showmanship at the Fair too! :)

There is a good chance he’s had his beard pecked out by the ladies…I have several bearded birds with a beard picking problem 😆 I had to scratch two from the Fair because the beards are gone 🤪 As for the mixing of the blue and self blue…there aren’t a lot of ways to identify them when they carry...

He’s very handsome!! I just love Ermine coloring, it’s so striking! 😍 Beard or not he’s gorgeous! ❤️❤️

Sorry I lost this thread! Yes, I do breed bantam Ameraucanas :-) Depends on the color and parental lines what the shank colors will be exactly. Self blues and blues should both have slate colored shanks. Splash will have sort of pink legs that get slate as they get older. Some self blues can...

A few of my bobtail grow outs from this Spring! 😍

Some of my babies 🥰
