self blue

Hello! I have a chick that was most likely the result of breeding a blue cream (aka porcelain) to a lavender. The chick is black. Does anyone know what this chick is carrying? Would it be considered a lavender split? Or would it be a blue cream split - is that even a thing? I’m not sure how...

Hello! I am wondering if it is possible to get lavender (self blue) silkies strictly from blue cream/porcelain breeding stock? From my understanding blue cream is a combination of the lavender gene over buff. So I guess I’m wondering if it’s possible to get chicks without the buff genes so they...

I got this chick from a mixed color pen where there are 8 hens and 6 roos. Both BBS (andalusian) and Lavender lines are in the pen. This chick that I got was darker (a lot) than the obvious splashes and than the one lavender that was for sure a lavender that was in the mix, but was lighter (a...

I have been wanting self blue/lavender Ameraucanas for forever! A friend gave me 2 hens that I love so much! I want more though, and am hoping somebody near Cookeville, Tennessee has some for sale(or hatching eggs). If not, Is there anyone somewhere else that will ship chicks? Thanks!

I’ve been looking for a dozen lavender silkie eggs and need them shipped to north georgia!! Any offers are welcome, thanks. Pic for attention!

Hello there! I keep cochin bantams and breed for fun! I just made an order for some golden laced, black and white mottled, self blue and birchen. I’ve never raised these before and would love to see them at any age. Any info on particular colors or advice would be accepted with JOY! Thank...

These are 7wk old Lavender/self blue Ameraucanas hatched from shipped eggs. All but one hatched from the pointiest eggs I think the breeder could find and while it’s a wives tale, I think I have 3 cockerels and one pullet. Let me know what you think. Also they have been very slow to feather and...

Two weeks ago I hatched out some mixes from my flock - I have BBS Orpingtons, Easter Eggers, Olive Eggers (I say that loosely because I got them as mixes so I’m not sure what their background is, just that they lay me Olive coloured eggs), and a few brown-egg laying barnyard mixes. The roosters...

Anybody out there? Midwesterners, where you at?! I'm no stranger to farming, but sort of a newbie to chickens. I did not realize that my husband's all-time favorite animal is a chicken. Scratch that. ALL chickens. We've been married 10 years and this was brand new information in spring 2019...

Wanted to know if anyone has bred silver duckwing bantam rooster and self blue hen together, what would they look like. Any pictures? Any help is appreciated!! Thanks in advance!!

I have a Black Male Old English Game Bantam, and a Self Blue Female Bantam. I got them from a boy and his family at a flea market. He said that if I breed them together that i would get something, but i cant remember what he had said. Any clue? Any help is appreciated!! Thanks in advance!!

I'm looking to add a couple self blue/ lavender bantam cochin to my lil flock. Where is a good place to find some or does anyone sell hatching eggs or chicks? I only want a few. Cant find them locally in Central Illinois.

Such lovely birds at the Ohio National— anyone know of a breeder who might sell one or more of their less-than-SOP grow out birds or extra show quality birds? So in love with the breed and variety! Warm thanks for your thought!

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...
