    Blue Egg Layers from University of Arkansas

    I talked to Paul Whiting on the phone and he had his blue egg layers at the UofA and worked with them there. They may not be the same as ours but they may have been used to make them. The point is kind of moot since Whiting is a fly tying company not a poultry business. You have to go to his...

    I am keeping two of the chicks I hatched to keep a Cross beaked Delaware company. They are getting along very well. The Del is a weak older than the other two: I kept one of the Splash UofA blues. This one is quite Spunky: I have one of the UofA Blues X Crele Penedesencas too. The...

    I have a blue Rooster covering two splash and two blue pullets. I will have blue, black and splash from that combination. I am hoping to get a nice splash Cockerel from them.

    Blue Egg Layers from University of Arkansas

    No, they go to the egg farmer. I will keep a couple though since I have a little Del chick that is lonely.

    Blue Egg Layers from University of Arkansas

    Hi Toni, The UofA Blues are from Whiting Farms stock. It is a Fly tying business that hatches chicks to use the feathers for Fishing Lures. Paul is also a good Breeder and has contacts at UC Davis and UofA. so he may have contacts with the Poultry Group at Georgia. As far as I know, Whiting...
