The Pens these will come from have the following colors,

Pen 1:
2 white hens
2 hens that are either splash or splash lavender split. Will update tomorrow on the decision. Sorry for any confusion.
1 white roo

Pen 2:
1 blue hen
1 splash hen
1 black hen
1 black lavender splash roo

Pen 3:
1 dark partridge hen
1 black breasted partridge roo

They are gathered daily and kept in a cool dark room in a carton. I don't keep eggs for shipping longer than 4 days. Each egg will be bubble wrapped and the box filled with either peanuts, plastic bags or shredded paper. Could be all 3. I make sure the eggs don't move around to avoid them getting broken.

I ship prority mail with delivery comfirmation and will send buyer the DC# when they are shipped.

Below are a few pics of the adults:

I see you have lots of pictures, do you have any of the paints or did I miss them?

Look behind the white roo. Thats the best pic I can get of them. They always hide behind the other chickens or won't be still for anything when i'm pointing a camera.

She is actually lighter in color than in the picture. The roo was shading her and the lighting isn't very good in the coop. When I bought the 2 hens the seller told me they where silvers. Then I thought they where splash and I found pictures on Fawke's Feather Farm site and they look almost alike. Mine are a tad darker. If I'm wrong on the color please let me know. Somebody else asked me for a pic of them too and I said the same. Please let me know if I'm wrong. I've never had any this color before so it's new to me.

You can take your pick of the bbs or whites but I only have 1 partridge hen so the eggs would get too old to ship if somebody wanted just partridge. I can add what she lays though if wanted.
 
The pic of the one behind the white roo looks like a splash not a paint. It would help if you got better pics of the paints. I would be interested to with better pics of the paints.

We had alot of rain yesterday and everybody is nearly the same color now. The color of mud. I'll grab one tonight when they bed down and give her a bath, blow dry and get a pic.
