Ameraucana hatching eggs.
- Hatching eggs are pickup only at Nacho Acres in Rosendale, WI.
- Eggs are collected multiple times daily and stored properly for optimal hatch rates.
- We cannot guarantee hatch rates due to variables outside our control (incubators, temperature swings, handling after pickup, etc.).
- All eggs are labeled by date
- Project lines (like Ermine Ameraucana) may produce variation — this is part of the fun and the genetics.
- Once eggs leave Nacho Acres, buyers are responsible for proper storage, handling, and incubation.
- Please plan pickup times carefully to avoid temperature extremes.
- Payment is due at pickup unless otherwise arranged.
- Unclaimed orders may be offered to the next person on the list. Live Chickens:

Any known prior health issues (missing feathers, curled toes, etc) will be shared upon sale announcement. The buyer has every opportunity to inspect the chicken before loading it into their cage/vehicle. After the chickens leave our premises, they are no longer our responsibility and are solely that of the new buyer. We make no health or egg laying quantity or color guarantees but are always available for questions after purchase. All sales are final. For chicks, all of the above applies and additionally: we assume buyer has done all research on necessary chick care (brooders, electrolytes, etc) and offer no health or gender guarantee on chicks as well. Dog Trail:
Our maintained dog trail takes you along the growing orchard, through the woods and around our marsh. We are not asking a specific fee per hour: It will be pay what you can per visit to help cover the cost of equipment wear and gas to maintain the trails. We ask you please pick up after yourselves and animals so that doesn't become an additional task for us. A garbage bin will be provided at the entrance/exit. For safety, no appointments will be allowed during the 9-day gun deer hunt. We do not allow hunting on our property, but a landowner next to us does. Property marking poles are present and a virtual map is provided to participants. Crafts:
There is a home-made crafts' shop on-site. Shopping available by appointment only, unless we have an occasional open house/sale. Cash, PayPal, or Venmo accepted

Our 4th and final shipped‑to‑us hatching egg unboxing — Kentucky → Wisconsin. And let’s just say… things could've gotten a little messy this round.

Join us for another unboxing — this time all the way from South Carolina to Wisconsin. And… let’s just say this one didn’t go quite as smoothly as the others.

Some eggs come out with these sandy, bumpy calcium deposits on the shell — totally normal and nothing to worry about. It just means the hen added a little extra calcium on her way out the door. The inside of the egg is perfectly fine, and the hen usually goes right back to laying smooth shells next time.

🐔Cluck n’ Tell Tuesday
We cluck 6 days a week. Tuesdays it's your turn.

What was your favorite trend?

Heather’s was the Skechers Shape‑Ups — the weird, wobbly shoes that made every walk feel like a mini workout. As a shoe person, she loved that they were different and added a little resistance to her laps.

🥚 What an Eating Egg Subscription Is — And Why We Use Them

Subscription basics
A subscription means you pick up on a set rhythm you choose (weekly, biweekly, or every 4 weeks). We reserve eggs for you each cycle and buy, raise, feed, and house hens based on that consistency. We do not sell to the general public — that’s part of the commitment we make to subscribers.

Why we use them
Before subscriptions, winter particularly was chaos: winter‑only shoppers, people disappearing in warm months, a long waitlist, and year‑round buyers getting pushed aside. Subscriptions fixed the fairness and planning issues.

What “ghosted” means
Your cycle = your pickup week.
If you’re on a 2‑week rhythm and Week 2 passes with no communication, but you show up in Week 3 or 4, that’s ghosted — because eggs were held for you during the week you committed to.
Those hens still have to be housed and fed (and feed costs just rose again), so to keep things fair, ghosted spots close immediately. Returning buyers are offered extras only if we have them, but the mutual reliability is gone, so we will never fully commit to having eggs readily available to them again.

Why it matters
We size our flock for the people who rely on us. Subscriptions protect planning, fairness, and predictability for everyone.

The Bottom Line
If you need a reliable, year‑round egg source, we’re your people.
If you’re looking for a “whenever I feel like it” egg seller, we’re not the right fit.

Did you know? Ameraucana egg colors can range from blue to blue‑green. Here’s a peek at just a few days’ collection from our breeder pen — and you can see the difference in shades. Same breed, same age, same pen, but each hen adds her own little twist to the color chart.

🍎 Orchard Update
We’ve planted some additional trees and assessed those from the past three years. Unfortunately, we lost two peach trees and one cherry tree — which was expected since these varieties are more particular about siting in Wisconsin’s climate. Apples, however, are not!

Our little orchard now stands at 51 fruit trees total:
- 14 peach trees (4 varieties)
- 2 pear trees (2 varieties)
- 2 nectarine trees (1 variety)
- 8 cherry trees (3 varieties)
- 25 apple trees (9 varieties)

Each year brings lessons in resilience and adaptation — and we’re excited to see how this mix continues to grow.

🐔💊 What’s in our chicken first‑aid cabinet?
Out here, when a chicken is ill or injured, there are no poultry vets to call. That means it’s up to us — the ones who watch our flock every day — to be prepared and ready to act.

A solid first‑aid setup isn’t about fear. It’s about confidence. It’s about having what you need on hand, plus a designated quarantine/hospital area where a bird can rest, recover, and stay safely separated from the flock.

Here’s what we keep ready:
- Supplies for cleaning, flushing, and protecting wounds
- Vitamins, electrolytes, and hydration support
- Tools for fungal, bacterial, or external issues
- Soaks, sprays, ointments, and gentle care items
- Gloves, gauze, tape, syringes, and other essentials
- A quiet, warm quarantine/hospital space for monitoring and recovery

Being prepared means we can respond quickly, calmly, and compassionately — and that makes all the difference.
