Rainbow layers hatching eggs ready to ship! These are from my free ranging flock. My rooster is a black copper Marans hatched from a super dark chocolate egg. Chicks hatching from these eggs will be laying olive eggs if they hatched from a blue egg, dark olive if they hatched from a green egg, and any from light brown eggs will be darker brown. Any chocolate eggs will hatch true Black Cooper Marans. Please remember shipped eggs are a gamble because they’re handed over to the post office. But I do take great care in packaging thwm in a way that they should get to you uncracked. It’s an affordable way to get some great egg color genes! Hens choice on what you’ll get!

Fellow breeders and chicken lovers everywhere. If you’re able to can you please help a fellow breeder who lost her home and prize birds. Thank you. It’s a terrible tragedy, especially at Christmas time. Thank you all for your help.

I have been working on colored egg laying silkies for more than 3 years. I’m happy to say I have acquired a very productive flock of blue/green egg laying silkies for a hefty sum while I’m still working on my own line. If you have any interest in chicks or hatching eggs from them please send me a private message. Chicks from my flock are from colored egg laying females and roosters that also came from colored eggs. Both parents carry the blue egg gene.

This is so true! Quality is not cheap.

Breeding.

POTENTIAL OWNER: How much are a pair of those ducks? I would love to start showing and breeding!!

BREEDER: $100 per pair

POTENTIAL OWNER: What?? That's way too expensive!!

BREEDER: What do you think would be a good price?

POTENTIAL OWNER: No more than 40. It doesn't cost that much to raise 2 ducks. You breeders are so over priced. You are ripping people off.

BREEDER: I am sorry you see it this way, why don't you try to breed quality birds yourself?

POTENTIAL OWNER: But I've never done it!

BREEDER: For FREE I can teach you how to do it, and in addition you will have the knowledge to do it again.

POTENTIAL OWNER: Perfect, thank you!

BREEDER: To start you will need a quality female(average minimal cost $50 and up). Also a quality male(average minimal cost $50 and up)
You may have to pay shipping to get breeder quality ducks. That is another $150.

POTENTIAL OWNER: That's insane. That's $250 for 2 ducks! That's more than what you're selling them for!!

BREEDER:Well, you can start with $100 worth of hatching eggs, hope they hatch, and hope you have a nice pair grow up from them?

POTENTIAL OWNER - That's still $100 😡

BREEDER- Once you have a quality start, to breed, you'll need a pen, shelter, bedding, incubators, brooders, feed, time, and the knowledge to hatch hundreds, feed those for 6 months, and cull for the best 10.
Raise those 10 a minimum of 6 months, hatch another 50 from those, feed those until grown, and cull again for the quality that you are looking for.

Year after next, and after about $1000 in feed costs, hours of time and dedication, you will be able to have the quality of the ones I am offering you for $100

POTENTIAL OWNER: But I don't have that much money or years to dedicate...
I'm looking cheaper

BREEDER: There is no cheaper unless you want hatchery stock or culls. For $100 you can buy these and already have a good start

POTENTIAL OWNER: Ummm .... You know, I think it might be better if I just do that.

BREEDER: Wise decision.

For us breeders there are no vacations or holidays, While you go to visit with family & friends, we are home at our animals caring for them. It is a no breaks commitment.
THIS IS THE REALITY
When you choose a professional, you don't only pay for the animals but also:
Tools, knowledge, experience, love, time, sacrifices, etc.
