Silver Lace Wyandotte
These are truly magnificently colored birds. Their silvery white feathers, laced with black, make them one of the most attractive additions to your barnyard.
They’re also heavy producers of large brown eggs.
Olive Egger
When it comes to appearance, olive eggers are a wildcard. They are predominantly black, blue, or brown chicks; however, they grow out in almost every color and/or combination of muffs and beards. Our olive eggers are F1, meaning first generation, and are bred from Black Copper Marans, Welsummers, and Ameraucanas. These chicks will grow into hens that lay predominantly green eggs ranging in color from sage to olive. There is potential to lay other colors also. They’re of moderate size and egg production—these are truly ornamental birds.
Welsummer
A Dutch breed known for its cold-hardy, calm temperament and their production of dark reddish-brown eggs. They are a curious and intelligent breed, well-suited for backyards. Welsummers have a single comb and strikingly different plumage between males and females, making them a unique addition to your flock.
Rhode Island Red
If you're striving for peak egg production while still wanting a heavy bird with good market potential, these Reds are for you. A check of national egg-laying contest records reveals the superior laying qualities of this breed.
Rhode Island Blue
Rhode Island Blues are a hybrid crossing two of the best layers: the Rhode Island Red and the Australorp. This cross results in a beautiful combination of blue, red, and black chickens.
Rhode Island Blues are a medium-sized production bird and excellent layers of large brown eggs. If you're looking for a multi-colored chicken that will outlay most others, this is your breed!
