F1 Olive Eggers

Olive Eggers are a blue egg layer cross designed to produce green to olive egg shades. Choose your sire line: a Whiting True Blue rooster crossed with Black Copper Marans hens, or a Black Copper Marans rooster crossed with Legbar hens. Our blue egg breeding stock is DNA tested and confirmed homozygous (O/O) for the blue egg gene, so every chick inherits a blue egg allele. Combined with the brown egg genetics of our Black Copper Marans, F1 pullets can produce beautiful shades ranging from green to olive.

Straight Run $5
DNA sexed pullets $15 each

Arkansas state law requires a minimum purchase of six chicks per order. All chicks are local pickup only in Hot Springs, Bismarck, Malvern, or Arkadelphia—no shipping available. Payment is cash only at pickup.

Chicks are sold as straight run unless otherwise noted, meaning they are unsexed and may be a mix of males and females. Bielefelders and Legbars are autosexing and can be identified as male or female at hatch. For breeds and crosses that are not autosexing, DNA sexing is available for an additional cost for customers who prefer confirmed pullets.

For the health and safety of our flocks, we maintain strict biosecurity, especially due to Aaron’s high value racing pigeon breeders. We do not allow visitors to our homestead, but Ashley is happy to offer a FaceTime tour to showcase our flocks and setup before purchase.
