I have 3 Ameruacana’s. They run free and I built them a nice safe coop that they have to fly up to enter. They make me laugh every day.
Mr. GG2 just put the finishing touches on my new gourmet predator proof enclosed chicken coop and hen house yesterday. I am now looking for 5(that’s the limit for our property size) Ameracauna pullets so we will be in business in a couple of weeks.
We used to have Rhode Island Reds when I was a kid but a few years ago I had an Ameracauna hen wander into my yard from who knows where looking like deaths doorstep and I started feeding her unpopped popcorn and scraps. She kept the whole side yard completely weed free and bug free and she roosted in a tree at night next to the deck. Everyday she laid a green egg behind my gas grill. So I’m getting Ameracaunas this go around.
