Hi Mr. Blair,

I wrote message to Mr. Neumann.  The captcha refused to accept my correct entry three times.  What are the remaining options?

As you saw when I emailed newsletters, I will be running for re-election for President of the Ameraucana Alliance. I would also like to announce Rachel Dunn has volunteered to run for re-election as well.

There is still time to send me your nominations for the upcoming 2026 Ameraucana Alliance officer elections. Just remember I need them BY October 1, 2026

I've seen on Steve Neumann's Farm page that he got out of the silver variety at some time over the summer.     I raise Large Silvers in PA, but your to far for me to ship birds to.

Never met Janet, but congratulations on receiving the Lifetime achievement award.    I have one very old hen from her bloodline, but I doubt I have any offspring from her as she typically lays soft shelled eggs at this time.

 Steve Neumann:   Mr Blair commends your Silvers and I hope you have sufficient to share.  I'm new to this org. and website, so please bear with me.  My project calls for at least two male and 3 or 4 female Silvers.  Where are you?  Are you willing to ship chicks or hatching eggs?
Older birds are acceptable if transportation remains manageable.

The Ameraucana traits to be captured are the Pea comb, slate legs and bluish eggs.  Personality counts as well.  Northern New Mexico needs a more cold-resistant winter layer that requires little coddling.  If we can fix turquoise eggs appeal should increase.

The crosses you are trialing are likely to appeal as well:  a well-proportioned and patterned Columbian is a delight.
Will you have any use for the F1 heterozygous males (assuming this goes forward?). They'll be birchen/ wheaten based; Co/co+, etc.

We're in and near Santa Fe.   I must limit my fowl exposure because I've had hypersensitivity pneumonitis.  I've been able to find an experienced grower/farmer who is interested in the project.  So, what can you spare roughly when?

Quote from: Maxx Handel on September 07, 2026, 12:18:23 PMI have never done a show outside of Wisconsin. Would my npip and premise id be all I need to do this show?
The entry form says, quote " REQUIREMENT FROM MINNESOTA BOARD OF ANIMAL HEALTH for out pf state exhibitors:  Need to call for an exhibitor's permit number at 1-320-231-5170 or online at https://www.bah.state.mn.us/single-move-request-form-poultry."   end of quote
I know last year in order to get the permit they required receipt of a completed USDA form VS FORM 9-3 .   When I called, the lady was very courteous and I had no problems whatsoever.   If you have NPIP, you should already have the form.
