I was talking about the $118 lav auction

well there is another auction just a bit further down for the 6+ blue wheaten ones just over $200.00
Both of these auctions are crazy insane. I think it is the weird extreme winter this year .......or could be that the sellers provided the right kind of teasers.

I hadn't been watching that auction I'd just been watching the Lavender auction and there is another Lav auction up to $60.00 already. $200 for BW eggs is a bit salty for me. Wonder if none of them hatch?

Me thinks............ it's the pictures of those dark blue eggs....LOL I do hope it is not just the camera shot. A friend bought some on an auction because of the wonderful color shown in the photo & paid way more than she would have & was sadly disappointed when the eggs arrived. Of course the seller offered no refund. What a shame. It makes you leery................Buyer beware. If it seems to good to be true??? You know what they say!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

DITTO X infinity!!! and Crystalcreek your eggs are just as blue as those eggs in the link. Believe me I've seen them (the person's in the link and yours) in person....you can make an egg any color by lighting and correct staging.

The funny thing is, if people had patience, they could buy a box of chicks from me for those prices........................


ETA: or, a number of breeders I know.

PipsandPeeps, I have plenty of patience. Do you really have some for sale???

 

[pips&peeps]

I'll have most varieties available in a month or so. They started to lay, but the weather has been so "abnormal" they shut down again.

I sell hatching eggs and chicks pretty much all spring and summer.

yeah over $200.00 for blue wheatens on one auction just for 6+ eggs. That is insane. I couldn't do it as I have had bad luck with shipped eggs.

I was talking about the $118 lav auction

ITS 160$ right now

I have a question... I have a true blue Ameraucana hen and if I breed her with a Welsummer roo.... my ex-partner said that we would end up with some "Olive Eggers". I am wondering if this is true or will I just end up with an EE?? Can someone help me out????
