Default OT, FS Laying Hens for weeding, bug eating, EGGS!

Love brown eggs? Interested in DARK brown eggs for your baking and
breakfasts? Want large, pretty chickens to weed your yard and garden?

This is your chance to get a rare French dark-egg breed for the
price of ordinary yard mutt chickens!

Egg color is shown at the top of the following page:

http://www.mothermastiff.com/breeds.htm

I have a lot of FEMALE chicks and young laying hens from a breeding program
for the French Marans. They were VERY fertile this year. I have a lot of
cuckoos (black and white barred pattern like a Dominicker) and a few of the
rare solid black ones for sale.

I normally get $10 each for my mutt hens. Purebred Marans hens are usually
$20 and up, but I will sell these for $10 each.

If you want fresh eggs and your own hens, but can't have a rooster where you
live, I can make sure you don't get any males.

You must take a minimum of two adult hens even if you already have hens, so
they will have a buddy they grew up with, for company in their new home.

Want young birds so you can tame them a bit, or more birds for your money?
Female chicks are $3-7 each, depending on size. Minimum of three chicks of
the same size range, for the same reason as above (and to protect them from
getting picked on, little ones are safer in groups).

Discounts for five or more, BIG discounts for 12 or more! Laying Flock
Package of 10-20 females, ask for details.

Selected males are free to cash buyers, you can have one free for every two
you buy. French Marans roosters are WONDERFUL either as guardians for the
hens, or as meat birds. They are excellent at protecting the hens from
predators and finding them goodies as they forage in the yard or pasture
(yummy bugs, mm-mmm!)
