BIN- 6+ Mottled bantam Cochin eggs

[WestKnollAmy]

This is a Buy It Now Listing -

Shipping will be via USPS at a cost of FREE
​

Up for your approval are 6 plus any extra eggs they lay before closing up the box. The photos of these birds speak for themselves.
The pen of Rascal, my 3 year old Mottled roo is over 2 blue Mottled hens and 3 black Mottled hens. I have hatched blue Mottled from Rascal in the past so blue Mottled is possible.
These birds are sweet, easy to care for and live outside in a tractor. They are moved to fresh grass and ground every few days and are not coddled but can be cuddled. They make good yard pets and enjoy human companionship.
You can see the type and color is there for anyone wanting excellent beauties. The hen in my avatar is one of the beauties in the pen.
Tonka's pen is laying and Grants' pen gives me an egg every other day since they are raising chicks now for my hopeful fall show season.

I ship out in a Priority box with each egg wrapped in bubble wrap and the box is lined with more bubble wrap for the safest trip possible. I have no control over what the PO does with the boxes but do mark them Fragile.

I take PayPal with the orders.
Please visit my website for more photos and info.

Already collected 8 eggs as of today. These birds are gorgeous layers. I hatched a blue Mottled out yesterday from this pen. I will set these myself but I already have several brooders and grow up pens full of them and thought I would share.

What a shame! I collected more than 12 eggs in 3 days from these birds. All go in my bator now.

I am working on a BIN with eggs from 3 breeding pens of these but if anyone is interested just PM me for details.
The cost would be $25 for 6+ and shipping is included. One pen is putting out blue Mottled chicks since I moved hens and roos around.

I'm confused, whats for sale in this auction? Chicks or eggs?

 

[WestKnollAmy]

Sorry, I was editing it and had to go back yet again to change it.

Are these Show, breeder or Pet quality?

 

[WestKnollAmy]

I never advertise mine as SQ because that is just luck of the draw when breeding birds. All these pens are have retired show birds. I would never guarantee you will get SQ birds because everyone's ideas are different but these birds meet the SOP. They are most certainly breeder quality because of that but I say all my birds are pet quality because I breed for temperament and not just looks so anyone can put the offspring in their backyard and not worry about the roosters attacking their children, though a lot can be how they are raised, as well.

I can say that if you look at the photos you can tell what these birds are if you know the standard. They have been shown and done well and people buy hatching eggs or birds form these pens and show the offspring and do quite well.
I personally have about 4 from this summer's hatches that are going to shows this fall myself but I do not post winnings or any placements because one day one judge loves the bird and the same day another judge doesn't. It is one person's opinion at that time. I breed what I like and have fun with my friends at shows.

Well I can say this, I for one will be buying some of these next!!!

I will try to bring some to Chickenstock, if they continue to lay well. Some people think they are expensive but they are so incredibly worth it!
I melt every time I walk out my back door and see them there in their tractor. They are gorgeous and sweet!
I have several breeding pens of these and wish I had time for more. I can't get enough of them!
