Speckled Welsummer Day Old Chick (straight run)

Description

Our Welsummer line started with an SOP trio of beautiful birds, but their eggs had a surprising lack of the very speckles that first made us interested in them in the first place! We began adding genetics with outrageous speckling to our breeding pens (but with unknown adherence to the SOP) while culling our original rooster for temperament. We’ve since completely ditched that line cross, and started again. Twice!

As we develop our Welsummer line, we hatch only the most speckled eggs, and are growing out as many as we can! From the grow out pen we choose the birds with the best conformation to go back into the breeding pen.

Note: this listing is for a straight run Welsummer chick. Welsummer can be guessed as to sex with about 80% reliability at hatch. I will do everything I can to send you known females in balance with male(s) but I will not refund males in 2025.
