Y'all made me laugh when I saw this!!! LOL!! I'm not completely out of the picture, it seems.....just hatched twelve and there is a lone little lavender in the bunch. Guess it's just meant to be.... LOL Most of them will be sired by this guy.... a Smith black..... I listed him and a black...

I have one remaining pair of PURE BLACK (NOT lavender, NOT splits) Ameraucana obtained last spring as chicks directly from Paul Smith, well-known in the breed club for his award-winning blacks. A very nice pair, ready to get to work for you improving those lavenders or just to start your own...

At least three Cindy's with you on board! That's funny.

. Thanks everyone for your interest in my program.

One female/male pair left. Champion AOSB showbird and a pair are already spoken for. Thanks again.

Too many irons in the fire. Horses, cattle, a kid in dance, ballet, gymnastics. Full time job. 82-yr old father. Three times a week in church. Something's gotta give. I'm not planning on hatching this year due to other obligations pulling at me and these girls need to have their genetics...

You're welcome--great hatch--11 WOW! Yes, ended up being a singleton bull--no twins. She is still huge. Bull is doing great, though! Thanks for asking!

I am dispersing my flock, if intersted: https://www.backyardchickens.com/t/762564/lavender-ameraucana-pairs-last-best-2-females-from-elite-flock

I am dispersing my elite flock of lavender ameraucana. If you have been following the variety for a time, you know these are the real deal. I have my last, best two females that I will pair up with the last two lavender cockerels I have and sell as pairs for $100/pair. You must provide a...

I have a lavender John Blehm cockerel and a pure black pullet from John Blehm if someone is interested pm or email for details.

DM Rippy if she came from me I had some carrying recessive white......

Send her with Paul

Hello all. It's been a long hot summer again in Texas, although not as dry as last year's epic drought. I have been away from all threads for months and it will take me a while to catch up, if I even can. Clare, that lav pullet with the peeper is NICE (as you know). I hope you take her to...

I thought since I have a sequence of photos of one particular bird I would post them here, to show development over time. This male had a very nice tail upon maturity, but is one of those birds that was slow to get one....I think the consensus we reached was the presence of the K gene, which I...

That is a really nice muff on that age chick; most likely homozygous and will pass on muffs even when bred to a clean faced bird. A definite keeper there. Thanks for sharing! Harry I lost a lot of enthusiasm this past 12 months especially with the lack of support from some founding members...

Harry this is one of my original birds hatched from your eggs lol!!! She is nice and hasn't been culled after several years so that should tell you something. I have a couple of lavs now that are the resulting offspring from my Smith splits. I will post pics later when I take some. I have...

Mechanical damage can also occur when the individual is picked by other birds in the same pen. So make sure that's not what is happening to her. It is very common in juvenile pens, where either boredom or perhaps a need for some extra protein (yes, they eat those feathers) drives them to do...

I will try to tackle the question regarding the split feathers that look like you took a scissors to them.... I have found my lavenders to have a much softer, more delicate feather than any pure blacks I have raised. I believe they are more susceptible to what is known as mechanical damage as...

And the quality will be worth the wait
