Head Hen Homestead

I have Welsummer Roosters from eggs I hatched & purchased from Burberry Homestead. She is a well-known breeder and her eggs are $$$. I ended up with about 9 roos out of a dozen eggs lol. I am creating a list for those interested and they are free. They are coop ready (off heat) and about 2 months old.

Welsummers are known for speckled egg genes. The rooster on the Kellogg’s logo is a Welsummer.! (Stock picture of Welsummer Rooster) LMK if you are interested!

After collecting eggs I sort by color. Makes my heart go pitter-patter.

Successful hatches! I hatched welsummers for myself so I can offer Welsummer chicks and hatching eggs in the spring. I also hatched some awesome olive eggers…some from Silverudds and some from whiting true blues. The OE chicks are $7 each.

I have 8 (f1) olive egger day-old chicks. $7 each. This is the last olive egger hatch for the season.

Last call for purebred Black Copper Marans hatching egg orders. $18 for a half dozen. I only have two BCMs so I can gather a half dozen in a week. I’m going to be releasing them back into general population soon so if you’re interested order now while they’re still purebred.
