Hedemora Fertile Hatching Eggs

[mothernaturesdaughter]

Hedemora Hatching Eggs $25.00 for 6+ and $15.00 shipping. Due to an extra layer of down Hedemoras are possibly the world’s most cold hardy chicken. They should be kept in zones 2 to 4 possibly 5 unless you are willing to artificially cool them during times of high temperatures. Hedemoras carry the silkie and the smooth feather genes along with feathered or smooth legs. They most often hatch black, lavender or white with or without silver or red. They are a landrace breed originated in Sweden and reach about 4 to 5 pounds. Each egg will be in bubble wrap and double boxed.​

I love the silkie look that your hen has how likely is it that the chicks you hatch will have that silkied gene as well?

 

[mothernaturesdaughter]

Thank you very much for the compliment. I do not have any stats but, I have hatched 16 and so far none are silkied so hopefully I am due for one soon. I have a beautiful silkied rooster and once he is mature in a couple of months it should considerably increase your chances.

oh no that's not good, hopefully soon you will get some.

I candled the 6 eggs today, 5 fertile which i consider VERY good considering having to go through the postal service and some very warm weather. I am crossing my fingers for some cute chicks in a couple of weeks! Ruth
