This is a Buy it Now for 12+ F1 and F2 Olive Egger Eggs. 6 of each plus extras. PM to buy.
Shipping is 20.00---25.00 west of the Mississippi. I double box and use pine shavings in the outer box to protect from abuse and temp extremes. The box is heavy, but worth it I think as I have had some reports of 80-100% hatches but as per usual cannot be responsible for any damages due to USPS handling.
I also cannot guarantee hatch rates due to factors beyond my control, but I have very good hatch rates on these here.
I crossed Welsummers with Blue and Black Copper Marans and got blue and black hens with orangy hackles laying nice dark eggs.
They are great layers, averaging 5-6 eggs a week each. I have these under a Blue Wheaten Ameraucana to make F1 Olive Eggers. These are eggs they laid at the early in their cycle on the left and later in their cycle on the right-
All of the chicks I have hatched from them have been bearded and pea combed, and all lay olive. This is what some of them look like, all growed up ; )
These girls are with a Splash Copper Marans rooster to get yet darker F2 Olive Eggs with a good variety of chick colors, but the chances of getting single combs and dark brown eggs only will increase in this generation. Here are some of the eggs they have laid-
I shipped out a bunch of these last year, and once they began to lay, many people sent me egg photos. With their permission I am posting some of them here.
