Hi Kris Dossey.
I'm adopting some protocols in order to improve, I found that two of my cocks had runny nose, this affects a lot.
It's 1 male for 9 carved, do you think the male can fertilize them all?

Thanks !!

Breeding / Low fertility of the Ameraucana breed

« on: September 17, 2021, 07:20:26 AM »

Hello friends, how are you?

Greetings to all creator friends!

I raise Ameraucanas in Brazil, we imported the final Black from 2019 and in 2021 we managed to bring
Lavender, Azul and we are shocking Buff.

I have a lot of problems with fertility in eggs

1- In each paddock I have a healthy rooster for 9 hens, is that many hens for one rooster?
2- Do Ameraucanas have a lower fertility rate than common breeds?
3- Does every pure breed have a lower hatch rate?
4- Could it be consanguinity? (They are still in the second generation of birds that came from America)
5- What can I do to improve the hatch rate?

It's great to count on your precious contribution.
Thanks!

I live in Brazil, I am very happy to participate in the Ameraucana Breeders Clube. I want to learn a lot from you and share the race in my country.
I am creating Ameraucana Brack and I intend to bring other variants to my breeder (Ameraucana Brasil)
