lavender

I’m looking for a lavender ameraucana rooster or cockerel close to West Texas. I will drive for the right one. Not looking to spend a fortune, he will be used for a breeding project.

So I picked up two lavender orpington today. I asked for hens and trusted that's what I was getting but... Can you help me out? I don't think they're ladies. I'm taking them back Monday if they're roosters. Thank you so much!!!!

I am looking for a reportable breeder of Silkie chickens in my area. Shipping is not an option. We would like to add the beautiful lavenders to our flock. If anyone hasvthem oir knows someone with them, please let me know. Thank you.

Recently, I bought Ameraucanna chicks between 1 and 4 days old. 3 of those who remain(always gonna lose some, sadly,) were sold as Lavender/Self-Blue. Now that they're starting the get their feathers, I have concerns. For the most part, they look white so far. But some of the feathers have...

Hey! We were given our two beautiful hens by a friend of a friend who shows chickens, but he couldn’t give us much information on them. I can’t seem to find any of the same liking online to specifically identify! We know that they’re lavender bantams but their feathered feet are what confuses...

Are self blue and lavender basically just two different names for the same color? And are there any breeds that have a self blue/lavender variety recognized by the APA? Somene asked what their bird was on Facebook and it was very obviously a blue Cochin. He insisted it was a black cochin that...

hey everyone! I’m totally crazy over quail I have already a few coturnix however I’d love to get some different colors in my flock! Does anyone have or know anyone with SSC?(silver,lavender, or blue coloring) I’d love some hatching eggs or even chicks! :wee

Hi! I just got a dozen of lavender X splash orpington eggs, setting them in the incubator tomorrow. I'm finding it hard to figure out which color the chicks might be - the breeder showed me chicks she had from the same mix and they looked lavender to me, definitely not black, but her birds are...

I am in search of day-old or very young lavender orpington chicks. I'm located in north east Massachusetts but willing to travel within an hour or so and to New Hampshire/Maine. Please let me know if you have any or if you know where I could get some. Thanks

This is my first time hatching Lavender Araucana. They are bred from UK standard show stock so they are totally different from US standards but hopefully someone will be familiar with this breed. I read on another thread that Araucana chicks born with a prominent lump on their head are likely...

I have a pure lavender ameraucana rooster, and a barnevelder hen I'm thinking about breeding this year. Has anybody crossed this pair and gotten nice olive eggs? Or are they likely to come out more like an EE egg? I know most people use marans for the dark brown eggs but I don't have any of...

I posted recently regarding my hen moulting three times in about 3-4 months she is now sounding a little hoarse then her normal brpp brpp sound. Is there anything else I should look out for as know they can hide illness. She's eating and drinking as normal and is showing normal behaviour. She...

Hi, I was needing helping telling the breed of my chicks. I am supposed to have two lavender Araucana chicks but their was a chance that one was a Orpington. The chicks are all between 2-3 weeks old. Though the chick in the first photo will be about a week older than the chick in the second photo.

This is Rickey he is a Blue Black Splash Breda rooster he was hatched 6/5 I got him 12/30/17 the reason he was being sold is because the gold leakage on his wings and back (I think it looks better that way though cause it looks like gold dust was sprinkled on his back when he's in the sun)...

we just found out that our beautiful, sweet, Lavender Orpington hen is really a rooster and our neighborhood doesn’t allow for roosters. Looking to re-home as a pet or show bird.

Lavender split to Black Copper is also acceptable. I will not be looking to buy them until March of 2018, but I am interested in getting on a waiting list or researching anyone who is breeding them. Must come from an NPIP farm. Prefer Merrick's vaccinated but not necessary. Eggs MUST be a 4 or...

I acquired a Lavender Belgian D'Anver Rooster by chance and he only sees my Serama hens through the wires that separate them. I don't want my Serama girls to get too attached because I have a Serama Rooster who I am waiting to introduce them to when they are older. He is currently entertaining...

Has anybody crossed Lavender Orphington Roos to Chocolate Orphington hens? Does anybody know what would be the outcome? Would love to see pics!

I wanted to create this post because i can not find much information on breeding sussex chickens. So if I breed a lavender sussex rooster to a coronation sussex hen. What percent of each colour would I get. Would I get good colour chicks. I also have a silver sussex rooster who was the offspring...

Help! My chicken, Lavender, is struggling after her "mother" and "best-friend" died. Lavender is a silkie hen, about 1 to 1 1/2 years old, laying frequently (every day). We had an ill Rhode Island Red hen that was her "carer" in a way - they were always together. She got an impacted crop and...
