I'm close to Knoxville and I have 3 Jersey Giants for sale. They're about 6 weeks old.

Cetteia...I have Blue Andalusians and they lay very nice eggs. They are not overly large though. Probably about the size of a large you would find in the grocery store. Leghorns or Jersey Giants may be a good choice. Good luck!

Jersey Giants don't lay white, they lay brown.

White Leghorn would be the way to go for big white eggs.

Order "Ideal" Leghorns from Ideal Hatchery.... the biggest white eggs out of all the leghorns. Plus the one I have is the only leghorn I have ever been able to tollerate. Leghorn (white layers in general) are not calm enough for my taste. This "Ideal" Leghorn is, though. Highly recommend.

About 10 minutes away, depending on what part of TP you are in. I have 7 generations of ancestors from TP/Coker Creek. It might sound cheesy but it's a place I hold dear.
