Green egg layers developed by Dr. Tom Whiting.
Description
Several years ago, McMurray Hatchery acquired the “Whiting True Green,” which we raise up to be our green egg layers. This is a line of chickens developed by Dr. Tom Whiting to lay green eggs.
The green egg layers were derived from Red Sex link stock (ISA-Browns). As such, they are good egg layers. The parent stock of our bird’s parents lay over 300 eggs a year.
They can resemble an ISA-Brown, or there is a second, brown plumage pattern. Occasionally there will be some that are a lighter color, but in general they look similar to the birds we have pictured here.
The ones pictured are 14 weeks old. Notice that they already have a well-developed comb.
The eggs are the first eggs from young pullets. I showed them with some white eggs for comparison.
We get day old’s from McMurray and raise them up for sale as started pullets so you can add a green egg to your basket.
