Sharon, is this the show in Tenn and if so what is the date. Thank you.

No. The Ameraucana fundraising auction is being held at the National Meet in Lucasville, OH on October 4, 2014.

Shakti, is your black bantam a male or female?   I'm looking for a female or two and could probably have someone bid on it for me.   I need to make a cross to re-invigorate the brown red bantams.   I'll be seeing a bunch of you at Columbus.

Mike, sorry for the late reply, we've been busy preparing for winter and the trip to Ohio. I don't know the sex I the chick yet, it is only 12 weeks. It's parents were both black, but grandparents I'm not sure if we're black or BBS. I got it's parents from Jerry.

By 12 weeks you should be able to determine gender by the shape of the new hackle and saddle/cushion feathers.   Pointed feathers mean male, rounded feathers mean female.

Gordon,

My son Matthew was taking the pictures for me while I did the paperwork.
