Black Copper Marans are famous for  their dark reddish brown eggs. These have been a favourite of ours with their beautiful eggs, friendly personality and eye catching colour.

Dark Olive Eggers These are chickens mostly Black Copper Marans (BCM) with some Ameraucana.

It's a fabulous combination that gives a very dark brown egg which is quite different from the reddish, terracotta colour of the pure BCM. These beauties are head turners.

The chickens look like a BCM but may have an Ameraucana comb and yellow legs. 

Temperament:  Active, easy to handle
Bird Size:  Large
Egg Colour:  Dark red/brown
Egg Size:  Extra large - Jumbo

Silver Laced Wyandottes are one of the showiest chickens around with their black laced white feathers.

We are really pleased with the quality of these ones, which shows up in the clear lacing and large size.

They look even better as they mature. SL Wyandottes are a eye catching birds and pleasant to have around. This line occasionally produces standard combs.
