Pullets: Blue/Black/Splash Ameraucana

Ameraucanas are astoundingly beautiful birds and quite friendly. Their small pea combs and sleek body shape give them the aspect of a bird of prey rather than a chicken.

Ameraucanas lay blue eggs, and they're a must-have for any rare breed flock. This particular flock has been sourced from a quality show breeder so that you may find yourself with some beautiful, show-quality offspring! These are not the Easter Eggers that other hatcheries deceptively call "Americanas" (and other misspellings). These are true Ameraucanas---and they are also, especially, high-quality lines!

Due to the genetics of the blue plumage color, these BBS Ameraucanas will hatch out with plumages of Blue, Black, or Splash (white or pale color with "splashes" of darker grey or black feathers as seen in the photo). When breeding blue to blue, you end up with a mix of 50% blue, 25% black, and 25% splash. However, our breeding pen has lots of splash hens, so your plumage ratio will lean much more toward blue and splash, with fewer black.

Benefits of Purchasing Pullets

• Started pullets are an excellent option for people who don't have the time, equipment, or desire to care for chicks.
• These juvenile chicks are sexed twice, once at hatch and again at six weeks old, which reduces your chance of ending up with roosters.
• The minimum order is just 2 chicks!
