Mossy Meadow egg of the day!! 😍
She is currently crossed to my Blue Silver Wheaten Olive Egger boy, so here's hoping for some awesome super speckled green-laying babies! 😁

So hard to stop taking pics of these eggs, even when they're in the carton and half of the speckles are hidden on their bottom half! 🤭😍

I love my Blue Legbars! But I really love the Splash Legbars too. This year my pen is set up to produce 95% Blue Legbars, but next year it will be producing a nice mix of Blue and Splash. 🥰

The speckled blue egg I posted earlier comes from my Opal Legbars! 😍 They are actually speckled + bloomed - not calcium deposits 🥰 Here's are a couple more of them! 🩵

These are Large Silverudds eggs - from my line of First Imports. Unlike the small eggs from 2nd Imports, they lay Lg-XLg speckled green eggs! These are 55-70g eggs, with most landing somewhere in the 60's. Chicks will hatch Blue, Black, Splash, and possibly a rare Blue Splash. My entire flock is also homozygous.

Mossy Meadow Mix - Multi-Gen Olive Egger chicks. These will hatch in a variety of plumage colors - you won't get all black chicks in this hatch! There are generally Blue, Black, Splash, Silver, Wheaten, and much more!

Blue Legbars - These will hatch with 95% Blue Plumage, with a rare Splash plumage also a possibility. No Cream Legbars in this set. Entire flock is also homozygous.

💜 Lavender Birchen Marans & Friends 💜

I've been getting a lot of requests on these the past few days, so just wanted to post a little update. I am not currently taking any orders for them, or keeping any waitlists. As soon as they are available in the online shop I will be posting here on this page, so look for updates on them in the near future! 🥰

These are some of the sweetest birds, and so gorgeous! This pen also has a few 'friends' (Opal Legbars & barred Lavender Olive Eggers) for some sexable-at-hatch lavender Olive & Moss egger babies!

If you get Silverudds from me, you may hatch a rare Blue Splash! 😍

This pullet is a Blue bird with Splash in the blue! They are gorgeous, and are a color you will find predominantly within the Silverudds First Imports lines like mine.

This photo is courtesy of a sweet local customer who got chicks from me this past Spring. Thank you Jaime Zinser for all the pics of your gorgeous birds! 🥰

🩵 A note on Opal Legbars: 🩵

I am transitioning this pen to hatch 95% Opals, so I have removed all Cream Split girls except 1 - so there's still a small chance someone could hatch a split! This pen now has Opal girls under Opal roos; HOWEVER - These Opal gals have all been under a Cream split rooster along with an Opal rooster before transitioning into this 100% Opal pen. So - for the next month or so you could also hatch some splits from this pen. So... if you want any splits with your Opals - now is the time to order before they all get flushed out! 🫶
