Thank you so much for these videos! Im about to get some of these beautiful creatures and I really had no idea the spectrum within! Birds are messengers of light and the secrets of the universe are nestled inside them! Nature is so poetic! Thank tou so much for sharing this sacred knowlege! So excited to get learning. Much love
This was such an awesome video!!!! This is something I’ve been so interested in for a long time! I just got 20 prairie bluebell egger and now I want to get those black copper Marans and I’m going to start breeding them like you!!
Congratulations on your new chickens, Carlos! 😄Prarie bluebells and black copper Marans are both excellent breeds. We wish you all the best with your new flock! 🐓
I work at a known store that carry "Blue Heirloom" eggs, opened the carton, and was surprised to see blue eggs. The hues on these eggs are amazing, from the dark browns to the lighter colors. Learn something new everyday! Makes me wanna have a chicken coop 🐓🐣
We adore you! We respect the animals we harvest and are starting quail😍 Your knowledge and awe of the whole process and your delivery of your experience in these videos is extremely appreciated, easy to watch....and made us look for others with you in the video. Thank you so much!
You are realy good,, at teaching simple things that most people over look, and that makes it so must easier for beginners and refreshing for old timers... thak you, God bless
Super cool! I have had chickens for a few years now and real appreciate the way ya just kinda laid it all out nice and simple and easy to digest backed up with a genuine smile and love for chickens. Thanks! :)
Speaking of genetics, you are the twin of my ex and she is english or scottish with a splash or Creek indian. However she has an extreme southern drawl because she is from Appalachia. Great show by the way.
While farm and backyard raised hen’s eggs are different from the commercial eggs, the different colors of the shell does make a difference between them. White shelled eggs from hens raised in a farm are not much, if any different from the brown and other colored ones raised in the same farm.
We just orders our girls and are getting a breed called Azure. They lay blue eggs. I can't seem to find much info about them on the internet. Do you know anything about them? Love your video and your passion.
At 05:20 Franchesca explains what chicken breeds lay each of her gorgeous colorful eggs. For more information on chicken breeds and what kinds of eggs they lay, we recommend checking out their website, www.alchemistfarm.com.
What color of eggs will a hen lay if her father is Speckled Sussex (pink/light-brown egg color from hens), and her mother is a Whiting True Blue (bluish color egg)?
I have cream legbars. I want to get a rooster to pair with them to get a darker blue. What breed rooster should I get? Watching so many videos and reading from the internet. Seems no one really talks in detail about this. When they do, it isn't structured for those just learning. Very technical.

Hi Evelyn, we will have to reach out to Alchemist Farm to see what they use traditionally for chickens pine or cedar shavings, hay, or straw are used. For quail hay and straw can also be used as well as leaves and corn husks.
In fact, there's no difference in nutritional value or taste from any type of eggs, from organic to caged eggs. Yes, it is possible to change the fatty acid composition of the eggs with high linoleic fat content feed, the pastured chicken does not receive enough of this fat to make any difference. But, the pastured and organic system is a great strategy to make a more sustainable way to live, from the perspective of GHG emission, resource consumption, and food security. Also, the gene pool preservation of differents chicken breeds is important.
A tremendous amount of data suggests there are in fact differences in the nutritional value of commercial eggs and pasture/free range eggs. And while some people may not be able to detect a flavor difference, others can.
Absolutely love this! So informational 😧❤️
Glad you found it informative! 😊

Thank you for the information👍
We're so pleased to hear that you enjoyed the video. We hope you have a great day!
I heard that if chickens are feed Calendula the eggs turn orange. I guess marigolds would work as well. They’re in the same plant family.
The eggs very beautiful😍😍😍
This video was perfect and so understandable! Thank you so much! I can’t wait to dive into and binge your other videos!
Thank You
So informative! Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and creating this video.
Lovely eggs, the colors 😍

Love this video !
Thank you! Franchesca is amazing. 😍
My understanding is range free is the best, than pasture raised, lastly cage free.

Love your video
Try blue whiting as well
Hi, love the video. I was wondering what color egg do I get if I BC a hen that lays a dark moss green egg to a Black Cooper Maran Rooster. Thanks!
Green also can be made by true green whiting
Thank you so much for the tips! We hope you have a great day.

I googled it as azure chicken and got lots of information
You’re a natural in front of the camera.
Loved your video ad the eggs! You seem to love your job. Are your chickens mostly for laying eggs or for meat also?
Hi Gabrielle, we're so happy to hear you enjoyed the video! Their chickens are used for both meat and eggs, depending on the breed.
@@KelloggGarden Thanks for your reply!
Beautiful eggs!
They are so beautiful! 😍
would like to know all the breeds that lay this colors...

wow
Hubby said i went broody lol
You can rinse your eggs and keep the bloom
What do you need at minimum for chickens in urban setting 🤔
Food water shelter
I’ve been places in South America and Asia where the store doesn’t refrigerate the eggs… freaked me out at first.
What color of eggs will a hen lay if her father is Speckled Sussex (pink/light-brown egg color from hens), and her mother is a Whiting True Blue (bluish color egg)?
How far are you from half moon bay?

What kind of material do you use in your nesting boxes ?
Hi Evelyn, we will have to reach out to Alchemist Farm to see what they use traditionally for chickens pine or cedar shavings, hay, or straw are used. For quail hay and straw can also be used as well as leaves and corn husks.
Thanks for sharing! Are blue egg laying chickens available as organic raised chickens to ensure organic eggs in the bloodline?
So is the better/different taste due to the color or the way the eggs are produced?
@beargrill she can survive let’s do one more adventure
do you sell your eggs to incabate???
Yes... Alchemist Farm sells hatching eggs. www.alchemistfarm.com
10 people disliked this video? why? how?
