Blue Cream Legbar Hatching Eggs from established 3rd generation flock. Pickup Only. I also have some nice 2 YO roosters for $10 each. Non-agreesive and gets along with his 2 cage mates.
My girl just started laying, but we are located in Upstate NY, 20 miles south of Albany. unfortunately I don't ship, but if anyone can pick them up, they would be free. I expect to have 6 or 7 by next week.
