rainbow eggs

February 22 egg collection.

If you had 24 eggs and only 22 spots, which would you leave OUT, and why? I’m starting my first batch of hatching eggs. I’m not entirely thrilled that not all are pure, but it’s a start. I want a friendly flock, good to excellent layers, rainbow of eggs & ability to sell eggs or birds when...

I did not see a June 2022 thread so I guess I’ll start 😂 ETA- I had 2 late comers. Total set 22 16 shipped cross country 6 from my coop I set these beauties (- the quail eggs) this morning. Estimated hatch date - June 10th Praying for pullets! We’ve hatched out more cockerels than pullets so...

My chicks hatched on April 27th, and yesterday on November 26th (just shy of 7 months), my Amercauna laid her very first egg! I've never seen a blue egg in real life and it is even prettier than in pictures. Wow!! Such a great Thanksgiving surprise and I'm still sooo happy about it! One of my...

I have eggs that are a mix of a Lavender Marans rooster and eggs from Lavender, Cuckoo Marans, Welsummer & Barnvelders hens. $25 per dozen. Let me know if you are interested and I will collect and keep them in a cool dry place and rotate twice daily. Thanks! Fertilized eggs for sale in...

These chicks are the offspring of a Lavender Marans rooster (Dark chocolate layer) and dark/speckled or blue...

I live in SE Queensland, Australia and have 13 hens, of varying breeds, and only about 5-6 of them lay daily. I used to fully free range them on my 1/4 acre block but sadly a neighbours dogs (2 x Shar Peis) decimated my flock by 4 and I am now forced to keep them in a big chook run most of the...

We’re finally getting more and more eggs. Most of the birds have finished their molts and are getting back to work. It has been pretty cold for the past week, which is why we have muddy eggs. It was finally beautiful today so everyone was out free ranging.

One of my many rookie dreams is to have a colorful egg basket to admire whenever I go visit the nesting boxes of my chicken shed. I have in mind nice, calm, cold hardy breeds that lay a minimum of 150 eggs/year, and are preferably equipped with pea, rose, cushion or walnut combs to repel...
