I hatched out 4 wheaten/ blue wheaten ameraucanas on April 4th. Any ideas on the genders? I'm thinking all boys and one girl...

Hi ya'll
I posted on here a couple of weeks ago now about my "white wheaten". I just got some more photos of her today (though none are really good). I'm thinking maybe it's not a "white wheaten" and instead a very pale wheaten and possibly even female...
Also, I think my little guys...

They sure are! We've hatched quite a few chicks these past few months in our incubator and they are still so excited and amazed each time! Makes for some really cute pictures too
My white silkie broody just hatched some Easter chicks for us! The chicks weren't her own, but were from our Easter Eggers and black Silkie rooster. At first I was afraid of how goofy these chicks might look, but so far they are adorable and closely remsemble EE chicks with furry feet.
My...
I'm expecting and it seems that everyone in my family is too, so I've just finished up a few of these for myself and others. I like buying prefold cloth diapers and embellishing the middle panel with a knit or flannel fabric. YOu can really embellish with any kind of fabric, I just find those...
My silkie just went broody a few days ago too. This is my first broody. I should have written down the exact date. She's sitting on some EE/ Black Silkie eggs. I'm sure these chicks will be very interesting if all goes well and they hatch. She keeps stealing all the eggs my EEs are laying, it's...

How much would you be willing to pay for one ? Sorry, just kidding...... I thought it was funny that I was posting away about how lovely the egg color is out of these girls (and hopefully out of Norm's daughters, I shall find out soon) and when I finished posting I found your's...
This may be a silly question, but do you drill a tiny hole in the egg to get rid of the inside before decoupaging? Two of my EEs lay two different beautiful shades of blue/green.
I went through an obsessive stage with V.C. Andrews. I stopped my collection probably about 6-7 years ago but had just about every book published to date of hers and the ghost writer. I do have to say that I did start to lose some interest as some of the stories were becoming too predictable...
It figures my first shot at Wheaten Ameraucanas I would get something crazy like this! And this chick was the only out of the batch to hatch.
Here is that same chick at a week or so old....
So this chick would not be good to keep and breed with other Wheatens, correct? If it ends up to be...

FarmerVal, are you sure this chick is a Wheaten/Blue Wheaten Ameraucana?
I have never hatched one that has been that lightly colored, it's almost white! Not even my Splash Wheaten juvie chicks are that pale. My chicks by that age have always been a creamy light brown color if they are...
Hi All, I'm Valerie
I come to this thread quite often to learn a little more about the Ameraucana breed, but haven't posted yet. I have one 4 week old Wheaten/ Blue Wheaten Ameraucana and 4 new little ones that are less than a week old right now. I love the breed, and think these birds are...
Wheaten/ Blue Wheaten Ameraucana. Tomorrow the chick will be 4 weeks old. Any guesses? This is the first time I've owned this breed, so I'm really not sure what to look for at this age.
Thanks!
If your hen just started laying, it might not hatch afterall. My Silkie has been laying for over a month now and we still have not had any fertile eggs. I've tried by both incubation and cracking the egg open to see if they have been fertilized. So far, nothing... She is in there with 2 other...
I'd be more worried bout the amount of time it takes to get there. I ship to Canada quite frequently and it isn't unheard of to have a package take 2+ weeks to reach it's destination...
