“Our little splash Ameraucana was the cutest little chick. Unfortunately, we ended up with a rooster. Definitely bummed that we have one less blue layer in the flock, and we may try again for a hen next year. However, as far as roosters go, he has been a pretty good one and we have grown very fond of him. He is curious, friendly, handsome, and good with his hens. He only just started to crow at around 22 weeks, and is just started to find his voice. We’ve seen no aggression from him, towards people, dogs, hens, or even our ancient and very mean Silkie rooster. I wish he was a hen, but he checks all the boxes for a good rooster!”
Katherine, We're sorry that you had an error with the Splash Ameraucana but are so thrilled that you may be able to keep him and that he seems to be a gentleman. Your account notes that you have been refunded for the error, so we've got our fingers crossed that this free rooster is a benefit to your flock! Feel free to reach out if you have any other questions or concerns. We're happy to help!
Thank you Ellice for the review on your Blue Splash Ameraucana! They are wonderful birds and the splash coloring is beautiful! Ameraucanas make wonderful additions to any backyard flock.
“She is a bold little girl, the first to run/fly to see me and she lays pretty blue green eggs. I would not say she is a visual masterpiece any more than any other creature though she is definitely cute. I was a little worried at first as she was smaller than the other chicks but very healthy and lively. She is just a smaller breed.”
Your little one sounds like a gem to have in the flock! We like a little spunk :-) Once she is fully mature, she should weigh between 4.5 - 5.5 pounds, which in comparison to say a Bielefelder who will weight about 9.5 pounds, she will seem a bit smaller. The Splash Ameraucanas are probably considered "in the middle" when it comes to size of the standard breeds of chickens. Please let us know if you have any questions - we are always happy to help!
The Blue Splash Ameraucanas are known to be so very sweet and docile! We love to hear about our babies! Please let My Pet Chicken know if we can ever be of assistance!
