Olive Egger Chicks - Dark Green Chocolate Eggs Multigenerational Moss - $5 (Columbus)
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 egg genetics 🤯
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
Message me to get on our waitlist (chicks always sell out before hatch date). Cash only. First come, first served. Straight run. These go FAST because dark green and chocolate layers are hard to find!
