Raina Posted January 4, 2010 Share Posted January 4, 2010 Hi all, Does anyone know how big Araucana grow? will the grow to about the same size as my RIR X LS girls? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redwing Posted January 4, 2010 Share Posted January 4, 2010 Probably as tall but a little lighter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparkysmum Posted January 4, 2010 Share Posted January 4, 2010 Hi, our lavender araucana is bigger than a pigeon but quite a lot smaller than our ex batt lady and quite slender too. She is very flighty & untill the big freeze would roost at night on a high up perch in their run or in the trees if she could. Quite shy too. Very sweet though, no eggs yet.

Redwing Posted January 4, 2010 Share Posted January 4, 2010 Here is my boy Marvin - the brown and white hen in the background is a Faverolle and she is a big hen so he is quite a big boy, maybe the girls are a lot smaller.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saronne Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 Hi Raina, There are Araucana 'bantams' (miniatures, actually) and LF Araucanas. My two are minis (see my avatar). Before you get your eggs, check with the breeder as to which sort they are. Saronne x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
