Okay. So all my “girls” are 12 weeks old now and I think we don’t have a roo. The biggest girl who’s definitely top of the order has been my main concern but at this point, her comb isn’t redder than any of the other ones and they all seem to be rocking similar feather patters. I don’t have...
I went to Rural King here in Central KY and picked up some chicks, only to find that they were not what I thought I was getting. Does this sound familiar? I need help identifyng all 4 of these babies.
I'm actually somewhat pleased as these look so interesting. These first 2 pics are from the...

I have 4 hens in an enclosure that they’ve been in for almost 2 years and out of no where my smallest Ameraucana hen (who is at the lowest pecking order) has just started attacking my brown leg horn hen, holding her down, pecking her head, and drawing blood. It’s been a few days and she hasn’t...
I hatched out 4 eggs. they were from a 1, blue Ameraucana over blue and white Ameraucanas and a cream legbar, and from 2, an Easter Egger pen. am I correct here?
brown is a legbar cross, black is an Ameraucana, and the two lighter babes are Easter Eggers? eggs weren't labeled.
Hi! This is my first time raising chicks and i bought 3 ameraucanas; one blue, one black, one splash. Im starting this thread on week 2 but im excited to see how they turn out and would love some guesses on gender and future coloring. So far i think the splash and black are boys, and the blue a...
so I'm getting a flock from someone local.
roosters: silver and wheaten
hens: silver, black, and blue wheaten
what colors could I possibly get if I put the silver roo in with the hens vs if I used the wheaten?
I JUST learned they exist... and they're purebred! Silkies & Ameraucanas are my "specialty" breeds. tell me more? where they're found? how the heck anyone figured out how to silk an Ameraucana without using a Silkie???!
Hello, i was given an "Ameraucana" that is actually an Easter Egger, which I am fine with, he is an amazing looking rooster. However I am having a little difficulty identifying his parent's breeds.
Obviously one was an Ameraucana.
The other is???? A Cream Legbar perhaps? I saw several...
Hello! A gentleman in Lucasville, Ohio gave me an amazing looking rooster this evening. I finally have a rooster to look after my 5 hens. I have never raised any Easter Eggers or Ameraucanas before so I have no idea which this is. He said it was sold to him as an Ameraucana but it probably...
I brought home this bunch a week ago; they’re now 3 weeks old. Sold as true Ameraucanas but this is my first time with anything other than silkies, so!
Any guesses? Cockerel or pullet?
#1 Splash
#2 Wheaten (?)
#3 Black
#4 Lavender? Blue?
Hey everyone, I am desperately needing to find great homes for some roosters!! I have one Speckled Sussex (13 weeks), two Salmon Faverolles (17-18 weeks), and one Splash Ameraucana (17-18 weeks). I love them all and wish I could keep them, but unfortunately in my town I’m not allowed to have...
1) What type of bird , age and weight
Lavender Ameraucana 6 months, ~3 lbs
2) What is the behavior, exactly.
Yesterday fine, ate worms out of garden Tends to be spunky, social, active. I call her a puppy chicken.
This morning she became lethargic and just sits with feathers puffed up. Not...
We have 5 roos to re-home! One is a pure Lavender Orpington. He is about 1.5 years old.
The other 4 are his offspring and crossed with Ameraucana (different hens). Two of the 4 have the fluffy cheeks and 2 do not.
Is anyone still doing the Silkied Ameraucana project? I'd love to get in on it but all the posts I can find on it are years old.
To clarify, this is pure Ameraucanas with the silkied gene (which cropped up several different times in various lines over the years), NOT Ameraucanas that have been...
Hey yall. We recently (today) purchased a hen from someone at a faire as she seemed like she needed some extra TLC and we have a good quiet flock for her to thrive in. She's apparently a 1 year old Ameraucana, missing tail feathers, back feathers, comb didn't look too great but I'm mostly...
I bought my first ever chicks seven weeks ago, and five of them are Ameraucanas. They are quickly turning into my favorites because they are so sweet-natured and curious. However, one of my Ameraucanas is significantly smaller than her four counterparts and much smaller than the other seven...
