AVAILABLE NOW Olive Egger Chicks - Dark Green Chocolate Eggs Moss - $5 (Columbus, NC)
QR Code Link to This Post
These are 4th generation moss egger chicks bred specifically to lay even DARKER green eggs than their already-dark-green-laying mothers or dark chocolate eggs.
The Genetics Behind These Babies:
We crossed our 3rd generation dark green layers (already producing gorgeous speckled dark green eggs - see photos!) back to our super dark Black Copper Marans rooster. That means these chicks are getting:
Dark green genetics from mom's side (3 generations of selection!)
SUPER dark brown genetics from dad's Black Copper Marans side
= The DARKEST green/olive or chocolate eggs!
Most hatchery chicks lay boring brown, white, or maybe light green eggs. These? These are FOUR GENERATIONS of careful selective breeding:
1st gen = light olive eggs
2nd gen = medium green
3rd gen = dark green (what the mamas lay now!)
4th gen (YOUR chicks!) = EVEN DARKER green eggs or dark chocolate eggs 🤯
You're buying 4 YEARS of genetics work. Every generation, we only breed our absolute darkest layers. These chicks will blow your current egg basket out of the water!
What you're getting:
✨ Chicks that will lay the darkest green, chocolate, or even a chance of pink eggs (dark brown egg with a heavy bloom which appears pink!)
✨ From healthy, proven dark-laying hens crossed to champion Black Copper Marans genetics
✨ Instagram-worthy eggs in 5-6 months
✨ Genetics you can keep breeding if you want to go even darker!
✨ The rarest, coolest eggs your neighbors have EVER seen - Pick up in Columbus, NC
