“Blueberry is a bit smaller than all of our other chickens but she rules over the flock with her large and fluffy beard. She can be a bit bossy with the others but never a bully. She's curious, friendly, intelligent, cuddly on occasion, and definitely a treat hog. She's kind and gentle with my young kids and started laying beautiful blue eggs at 27 weeks old.”
Thank you so much for sharing such a wonderful review of Blueberry, Serena!
She sounds like a perfect example of a Lavender Ameraucana — full of personality, confidence, and that signature fluffy beard. We love hearing how she manages to be a little bossy without being a bully, and it’s especially heartwarming to know she’s gentle and kind with your young kids.
Starting to lay those beautiful blue eggs at 27 weeks is fantastic! Thank you for choosing us and for taking the time to share your experience — Blueberry sounds like a truly special hen.
“I ordered a few of these chicks and they turned out to be beautiful!! Their color is amazing and they look just like the picture. Their beards are as fluffy as can be, they’re goofy, charismatic, and are very social and nice when it comes to humans. These are 100% pure breed Americana’s. My ladies are approaching 6 months and we’re expecting eggs soon.”
Thank you for sharing this wonderful update on your Lavender Ameraucana girls. We are glad to hear they grew into such striking birds with all the charm and personality that this breed is known for. That soft lavender shade paired with those full beards makes them stand out in any flock, and it is great to hear they have the friendly nature to match their looks. Thank you for choosing to welcome these birds into your home. We are always here if you need support as they reach their next stage!
“I ordered 8 girls that are almost 8 weeks old now. I only ordered one lavender Ameraucana and she has by far been my favorite girl. She is friendly and curious. She loves to hop in my hand and be held. She is probably the smallest of my flock, and is taking the longest to grow her neck feathers in. When I give them treats, especially crickets, she likes to dive in and try to steal everyone's and run off with them. She is entertaining and just the cutest little thing.”
What a delight she must be in your mixed flock! Some chicks are a bit slower to grow into the 'big girl feathers' but they can be the sweetest and spunkiest in the group. High protein treats like the crickets or dried soldier flies are a wonderful feather fixer. Thank you for sharing your review!
We appreciate you taking the time to share your experience. While we strive to meet breed standards with our Lavender Ameraucanas, it's important to note that not every bird will be of show quality. Many of our Lavender Ameraucanas do meet expectations, but due to the nature of genetics, some variation is normal, and a few may turn out less impressive than others.
If you suspect you may have received a wrong breed or have concerns about specific traits, feel free to send us photos — we’d be happy to take a look!
“I’m a first time chicken owner and received my mixed flock of 7 baby chicks 6 weeks ago. Let me start by saying my experience with MPC has been great so far. Everyone has been so kind and patient with all my new chicken mom questions.
All my babies arrived healthy and are doing great. My Lavender Americauna (that my 4 year old named Pippi) is absolutely stunning already. Her coloring is beautiful and she’s so sweet. Whenever she sees me, she runs over and plops in my lap. I adore her!!”
We're so excited to hear how well your first chicken-keeping adventure is going so far and we are delighted to welcome you to the My Pet Chicken flock! It sounds like Pippi already has you wrapped around her little wing, and honestly, who could blame you? Lavender Ameraucanas have a way of stealing hearts with both their beauty and their personality. We're honored to be part of your journey, and so glad our team could help with all your new chicken mom questions. Don’t hesitate to reach out anytime for support; we were all first timers once and we are happy to help.
“Love love LOVE my little Lavendar! So pretty and super friendly, she is definitely a lap chicken and loves her snuggles. But still holds her own within the flock . Beautiful color, so glad I added this beautiful friendly girl to my flock!”
Thank you so much for sharing your love for your Lavender Ameraucana! We're thrilled to hear she's such a beauty and is fitting in so well with your flock...when not getting those super snuggles! We appreciate you adding this wonderful girl to your family and sharing her with this great review!
