Hard Working Girls!

The girls have been working overtime this week!

We have hatching eggs available and are working on our egg selling stand :-)


Although a cellphone camera doesn't do justice to the colors of these eggs at least it shows you the variety! We do not have any white egg layers.. so, the white ones are actually blue.

Hatching Eggs..
-Easter Egger
-Olive Egger
-Rhode Island Red
-Birchen Marans (limited)

A new beginning

Wow. It's been over a year since I've updated this website. Partly because of yet another move. Partly because I couldn't figure out how to access the account when I forgot the password and partly because of work and life.

Yes, we've moved yet again. We've been here for about 8 months and are still working on getting our flock down to what we definitely want to breed and then building up those numbers. We are slowly but surely getting it done.

We are trying to get rid of our mixed breed and hybrid birds and breeds that we do not want to pursue in our breeding program. We did however make the mistake of allowing some of the birds to become our pets... Hence we have not processed a single rooster yet!


We are working on building up the numbers of the desired breeds. Like this Birchen Maran. His lady lays the darkest eggs I've seen yet. So.. we are hatching every egg she graces us with. We are fortunate enough to have 2 handsome boys like this so getting a good breeding flock started shouldn't take much more than 6 months :-)


The top row is our Birchen Maran hens eggs. Bottom row is Americuana/Maran crosses that will create beautiful olive layers
