Olive Egger Chickens produce a nice army green egg, and come from a couple of different cross combinations. One line is a cross of Americanas and French Cuckoo Marans. with this hybrid cross most of the females will be black but a few will come out blue. Another cross is between Legbars and Welsummers, our goal with these is to create a green egg that is speckled similar to the Welsummer's egg. Both of these crosses have a 5% chance of laying brown eggs. These are a mix and you could receive birds from either and or both flocks, there is no option to choose between the two. Friendly and docile, these birds get along well with other breeds, are hardy in winter and bear confinement well. Hens begin to lay around 6-8 months of age and are great producers! These birds add interest and color to both your flock and your egg basket! Get your baby chicks for sale today!

3 months ago1 Answer

Can't wait to see some of those olive eggs!

I was a little worried when the tracking showed they had shipped on Monday, and that expected delivery was Friday. In fact, they were delivered the next day and I was happy to find 10 happy healthy hungry chicks. They are all doing well.

Just buy from store
4 years ago
I have had 100% living success rate when buying chicks in the store. I know they lose a lot in the store. However, for some reason I lost 6 out of 10 birds the follow day from picking them up. Just save self-dealing with sick birds and buy from the store.
