Olive Egg Layers

DSC_0404 DSC_0222

Our flock of Olive Egg Layers was an initial cross of our Black Copper Marans and Blue/Black/Splash Ameraucana.  After several years and selective mating we have grown a flock we are very proud of.  To keep the integrity of the egg color we only keep hens and cross them back to either Ameraucana or Marans roosters.

For the last few breeding seasons we have kept them in our Ameraucana pen but for 2013 we’ve decided to move them to our pen of Black Copper Marans.  We anticipate an even darker olive color out of these chicks.

      HI James,

      We do not have any Olive Eggers chicks at this time but should have some available this Spring. We do not ship chicks (local Northeast Ohio pickup only) but do ship hatching eggs and (as available) started birds. You can contact us directly at sales@loudenfarms.com
      thanks

    I am interested in your Olive egg layers, Black Copper Marans, and your Ameraucana pullets. I live in Alliance, Ohio. I’m not sure how far you are from me for possible pick up when available.

    Thank You!

      Hi Staci,

      We are about 2 hours north of Alliance. I don’t have any pullets available but check back in the fall, we may have some then.

      thanks
