I doubt you sell them and ship them as I know chickens don't travel well. Please, do you have any suggestions on where I may purchase chickens here. I live in Ventura County. Thanks!

This past summer we recieved 4 baby Araucanias. The post office was a bit anxious when they called us at 7am, to come and pick the box up! Two weeks ago a couple of them started laying, and the eggs are so beautiful!! So far, three of them have laid only green eggs, ranging from a very soft pastel to a somewhat darker, almost pale avocado color. We are hoping for the other one to lay blue eggs! ~Beth We live down the street from you in Monrovia. This past summer we recieved 4 baby Araucanias.

We just got some chicks, and one is an Americana (Arucana) so I am psyched to see her lay (in like 4 months). I've heard they are sporadic layers though. Is that true? I love the blue egg!
