Description

   Chicks are sold straight run meaning we cannot guarantee you female chicks.

Each chick has a 50/50 chance of being male or female.

The 2022 group of Moss Eggers has merged with our 2021 group of Coco eggers to create hens that are laying the unique moss green as well as matte brown like the image below. The 2024 line of moss eggers lay all sorts of earth tones found in a forest hens have a 90% chance of laying a green egg and a 10% chance of laying a brown matte egg. A group of these birds will lay a stunning and dynamic basket all on their own, each egg being a deep rich saturated color.

Our moss eggers are one of our few breeds that will lay eggs with a gorgeous thick bloom over the top giving the green eggs the illusion of being silver or grey and the brown eggs the illusion of purple or pink.

If you are looking for a for sure bet on green colored eggs, go for our olive eggers. Olive eggers will lay 100% green in a slightly lighter shade then the moss eggers and a darker shade then the sage eggers. 🙂

Robust and strong birds, we affectionally call them the Clydesdales of the farm. Their wide stance, feathered legs and bold heavy breasts make them a solid duel purpose choice. Docile, curious, attentive, they have every base covered you would hope a chicken would. These birds come in white with black flecks, blue and black feather types.

Large, docile, and friendly, these are some robust birds that can be used for dual purposes if
you are looking to close the loop on your protein sources and grow your own chicken for meat.
Extremely climate resilient, they take high heat and low lows, with the ability to thrive in both
snow and desert conditions. If you live in an area of temperature extremes these birds are an
excellent match for you.
