We love the eyeliner and chipmunk stripes on these little chicks! They are adorable. These lovely birds produce eggs in various shades of green, ranging from mint to sage to olive, and are adorned with speckles! Speckles are one of our favorites! Many of our Speckled Olive Egger hens will resemble the classic patterning and coloring of a Welsummer chicken, with rich chestnut brown and vibrant red feathers, although many will have totally different coloring! These gals are prolific layers of those beautiful olive eggs, and the roosters also make a charming addition to any flock with their lovely coloring and generally docile personalities.

Fun fact about Straight Run chicks:
Did you know that, unlike mammals, the hen determines the sex of their offspring in chickens? Hens are the ones with the two different chromosomes! As neat as that little fact is, please be aware that we have no way of guaranteeing the sex of your straight run chicks. If you would like to get hens only, we suggest you purchase our breeds that guarantee female chicks.
