My current flock consists of 1 lavender Orphington rooster and a lav hen. 2 barred rock hens. 1 black australorp, and 3 color variations of araucanas.
I've hatched eggs in the past with rhode island reds and barred rocks. But never mixed breeds.
I thought about getting more lavs to get all the same breed but can't find any by me and I wouldn't have room for the new hens and chicks.
I want to just hatch brown egg layers.
Do any of you hatch mix breed eggs for personal egg use? Is it frowned upon?
I'm not particular about my stock. Meat and eggs are all I care about.
Thx
