Day-Old Chicks, sold straight run
Chicks from this pen will be the offspring of Olive Egger Hens bred back to an Olive Egger Rooster. Roosters are F1 and hens could be F1 to F6.
We do this cross because it can create very unique egg colors not seen with standard OE crosses. You could get varying shades of blue to green, Olive shades or brown.
Chicks, just like the eggs, can be a myriad of colors and patterns. Some may be solid Black, Blue or Splash. There’s a chance for white or barring. They could have a beard, muff and/or crest with clean or feathered legs.
If you have space in your chicken coop for some fun and unique birds, this would be a great cross to consider!

Chicks are shipped at one day old. After hatching, chicks are still absorbing their yolk which provides them with nutrients for up to three days. For this reason, we do not ship chicks older than one day old and eggs are set specifically for orders. Chicks are generally listed in three month blocks and current expected shipping time frame is listed on the day old chick home page.
All orders are shipped on a first come first served basis.
All shipments are noted to be held for pickup at the post office with purchasers phone number.
At the time of shipment purchasers will recieve an automated shipping confirmation email with tracking number.From February to June we have a shipping minimum of 10 chicks to ensure that chicks stay warm enough during transit. During the peak Summer months, July-September, we drop the minimum to 6 chicks. We don't generally send many chick orders in Fall, but if we do, the minimum goes back up to 10.
Shipping is a flat rate of $65 per box. This includes cost of shipment, shipping box, Grogrel and heat packs for the chicks. 1 box holds up to 25 chicks. An order over 25 chicks will require a second shipping cost.
