Title: Picture of best Ameraucana cockeral and hen/pullet in show wanted
Post by: NGaAmeraucana on September 24, 2011, 07:10:24 PM
Can someone post a picture of a REALLY good (preferrably show winner)  Wheaten Cockeral and hen or pullet?  I\'d love to see what they look like.  

Thanks

Check out some of the photos of winning birds at some of our national meets.  Here is a link from 2010...

Also, check out the photos page on the ABC site.  The bantam wheaten cock is really nice.

He is beatiful.   :D


Here\'s the Cockeral I\'m currently using.  He was the largest of this years hatchlings not the best colored.  Can someone evaluate his type/shape and tell me what needs to be lengthened/shortened/etc...

Thanks

The pic is really too small to be able to evaluate well, but I did actually whistle when I first saw him...you know, first impressions and all....he\'s purty!!  AND has a nice black beard!!

I\'ve been trying to get a better photo with a real camera and not the cell phone.  Chickens are hard to photograph.  They\'re stll for a second and then they snap their head and the pic is blurry.  

His tail has color and there are black feathers in his hackles.  Size.. I need to weigh him.

He weighed in at 6.5 lbs and is only 7 months old.
