Ermine Ameraucana hatching eggs and chicks are now available for preorder!

The Sad Scientist line is unrelated to any other Ermine Ameraucana line. Lance Harmon here in Minnesota recreated the color by breeding the Erminette breed to Black Ameraucana. We’ve spent the last 4 years refining the work he started.

The listing for chicks is for Ermine colored chicks only—no black chicks will be sent.

We weren’t going to offer Crele Penedesenca in 2025, but we’ve received many requests for them so we’re making them available as hatching eggs 🐣

Crele Penedesenca are an autosexing dark brown egg layer. They’re more productive layers than Black Copper Marans, especially in the heat of late summer when most Marans lines take a break.

They’re available for preorder now! https://www.sadscientistfarm.com/products/crele-penedesenca-hatching-eggs

Sad Scientist Chocolate Eggers generally lay a 4-6 on the Marans shade scale and we’re always working on making them darker. Progress is incremental because there are SO MANY things beyond egg color to consider when breeding chickens.

We maintain two separate lines that are then crossed to create the Chocolate Egger pullet chicks you receive. Each line is selected for egg production, persistency of lay, egg size and quality, temperament, non-broodiness, climate resilience, and general vigor.

We kinda want it all 😅

A rainbow egg basket classic — Olive Eggers!

These girls are hardy layers of 5-6 eggs per week. Their appearance can vary a bit—black or chipmunk striped, beards, crests, pea combs, or single combs. Each chick is a fun little surprise, but they all lay beautiful green eggs!
