Great, thanks. Can't wait to see them! Thank you!

Very very interesting! Thanks. I have a few chicks right now that I hatched. All were from a blue AM [who was sexed a girl!] cockerel. [His AM sisters BTW, lay a nice blue egg, no green tones, but medium in depth of color.] One hen was a barred rock and one an australorp, both lay...

Got it. Oh well. How to make them stop.....

Sandi has wonderful show-quality Salmon Faverolles! Gorgeous birds.

Yes! It's sad for all.

Here's some basic info on false advertising laws, which is what hatcheries do when they sell a mixed bird as an Ameraucana: Private parties, such as consumers or competitors, can file a complaint for false advertising under the Lanham Act. To establish a violation under the Lanham Act...

Good post. Add it to the "Link for Newcomers" started by ReyVaugn [I believe].

I am confused how this will be any different from the very popular EE Braggers thread. I don't think it should be called "the ameraucana thread..." either. Not from any elitist position but from a position that that will confuse the issue more. You are creating another EE thread. This...

Put some food coloring in her vent, then you'll see what egg she is laying.

Yes, all things Ameraucana, as per the ABC site's definition. Those birds that do not fit in the breed's definition of Ameraucana can be discussed on other threads. Not that they're not nice birds perhaps, just this isn't their thread. If the definition of Ameraucana is upsetting or...

Why don't a few of the experienced folks here make a thread that is a sticky that covers this topic in full. And make it a closed thread. Then when someone new comes here--with valid questions--they can be given the link to read the full story there. That way it won't need to discussed...

Thank you!

Yes! Thank you for your kind words!

So after all my worries about my two 9 month old pullets not laying yet, I've been blessed with about 10 eggs this first week. Love Ameraucanas!!

Wasn't tiny cuz she's been holding it in so long!!

Hoping for you, too!!

Ah, yes, the wheatens. Thank you. Nice that you get such good colors. It's still new to me, having young pullets, so every new girl that lays is a bit like opening a present!

Thank you! I still can't believe the funny timing!! It looks a little green in this picture but it is not. It is a blue but a pale blue. Is that not uncommon for blue AMs? Which AMs seem to lay the deepest blue color? Or am I imagining that I read something about wheatens or buffs...

Thank you, both. You made me feel better. Yes, waiting a year for eggs is torture! And .... I'm about to tell you something SO odd it's hard for me to even believe it. This morning when I wrote here, I was near the point of thinking it might never happen. Below is what greeted me when...

So, I have two pure AM pullets, one blue one splash, who are now about ~ 9 1/2 months old. They are lovely and sweet. The splash is so affectionate. Everything is wonderful except I have not had one egg yet!! All my other girls and even my silkies I hatched in July have laid eggs. I...
