This is for 6+ of each depending on the girls.

I have a Blue Birchen Marans Rooster over Blue, Blue Splash and Black Copper Marans. Thus the Chocolate chip

If you want beautiful DARK eggs you have come to the right place. I think the birds are beautiful too

And for the MINT ~ That same rooster is covering Lavender Ameraucanas and Split Lav. Ameraucanas. The offspring from these eggs should lay a nice green olive colored egg.

I hatched all of these birds here last spring from eggs I got from fellow BYCers (thank you all).

Fertility has been great.

We all know the risks associated with buying shipped eggs. I will do my very best and pack them well to protect them from any bumpy rides they may travel.

They will each be wrapped and the box packed well.

I will post pictures of the birds as soon as weather conditions allow. Thank you for looking!

(Disclaimer here to the serious Marans breeders - Bev Davis tells me that my roo is a Blue Marans who is carrying both a silver and a gold gene. Bred with the BCM he should throw Black and Blue Copper Marans. Over the Blue & Splash he should throw Blue/Splash and Blue/Splash birchen, maybe even a Blue Copper.) I will be breeding and culling in the coming years to get to straight Blue Birchen) Bev if you see this feel free to correct anything I may have misenterpreted. Thank you!

Nice looking eggs!
 
I have a couple pics of the roo and the Blue & Splash girls from last fall. They have all matured and filled out since then.

These are just to hold you over

Beautiful birds! The birchen is quite striking! I love birchen. Great egg color, too.
 
GREAT AUCTION. Gotta bid on these. They are going to be some super interesting chickletts.

My Marans aren't laying for beans right now, so I'm dark egg jealous! Good looking eggs Aces!
 
Nice!!! Especially like the roo!!! Oh forget I love them all:) I must sell at least 20 pullets before I can buy any more eggs or they'll be running in the streets and that's not a good idea!!! Come and see me and bring that rooster with you!
