Hi everyone. A while back, I posted looking for bantam wheatens, and then standard wheatens. BUT, I have since developed a strong love for deep reds in chickens in general. I\'m not talking about brown or buff, but the red that shimmers in the sunlight and LOOKS red. I\'m not very well versed in color genetics, and my attempt at learning more has led me to learn that the mahogany gene (in general) is a main genetic marker for the red I\'m talking about. There are others, granted, but they haven\'t been specified yet, that I know of. I don\'t know if this type of red exists in Ameraucanas. If so, can anyone help??? I\'m looking for a rooster and a hen. Fall is approaching, and I\'m desperately hoping to secure a few more birds that will mature before the cold sets in.
I realize that I\'m barking up another rare tree, but as you can tell, I don\'t like going down well-beaten paths....I tend to like to make my own!
Please feel free to email me!
