Our Homestead Starter hatching eggs are a fun surprise straight from our mixed breeding pen here at Farther Along Homestead. These eggs are produced from a variety of our hens paired with roosters currently in the pen: French Wheaten Marans, Lavender Orpington, White Silkie, and Buff Silkie.

Chicks may vary in color, feather type, and personality — making every hatch a unique and exciting experience. You can expect the possibility of darker Marans influence, fluffy Silkie traits, and beautiful Orpington coloring in your hatch.

This is a pre-order listing. Eggs will be collected fresh and held in the order received.

Local pickup only in: Quincy, Liberty,  or Richfield, Illinois

or Hannibal, Missouri

Please note: While we handle and store hatching eggs properly, hatch rates can never be guaranteed due to factors outside our control (incubation methods, handling after pickup, etc.).

If you love a little mystery and barnyard variety, these eggs are for you.
