    Ok thanks! The grower feed at my local feed store says grower/finisher and says 15% on the bag and the brand is Dumor. Is this the right stuff?

    Not sure this is the right thread to comment on, but I'm looking into getting a few of these hens, how dark of and egg do they lay(could someone post a pic of an egg) and how good of a layer are they?

    Dark brown egg layers

    Oh ok, and I was actually planning on buying pullets about 4-6 months old( closer to laying eggs :)) but I was looking in a Murray McMurray catalog and they run 19.99 per bird! Is that a good price? Seems a little pricey to me!

    Black Jersey Giant thread!!!!!

    Hey all! So I am looking for a couple hens that lay really dark brown eggs, and that are good layers? Would this be the breed to go with?

    Dark brown egg layers

    Ok, thanks for all the advice! I think I will go with whatever they are selling, 1st choice is marans, and then welsummers or jersey black giants or Delawares. Any idea what the going price for any if these breeds as a pullet is? :)
