Alchemist Blue Chickens 2024 Line

Back for 2024, we are pleased to offer these beautiful mild mannered birds, now in both male a female options.

We love having varied colors of birds in our flocks and the Alchemist Blue chickens rise to the occasion. Coming in both blue and black feathering with silver lacing around the neck, these birds are gorgeous. Very productive layers of blueish/greenish eggs, they are a cross we have created that leans heavily on Isbar influence. It is the temperament of the Isbar that we love to continue to breed and cultivate in this unique bird.

Their smaller frames make them one the most svelte group we work with on the farm and their feed to egg ratio is excellent. If given the proper care they will lay year round and are cold hearty. Every now and again one of our females will have a fun little tuft of feathers on their head that looks like a little mohawk waving in the wind.

They are fantastic foragers, laid back and not particularly flighty. They are intelligent and will come home to roost in the coop without much fuss.
