For sale 12+ Frizzle/Cochin eggs from my personal stock. These have been raised from eggs here on my farm and are now laying eggs. My Roo is a blue Frizzle who has beautiful coloring and loads of feathers on his feet. The girls are a variety of buff, black, blue, and splash hens. Keep in mind...
These are my chicks hatched this week...first two are a silkie and a silkie cross...light one is a bantam Americana
