The breeds listed below are our best egg layers.  They lay large eggs, and they lay frequently and consistently.

White Egg Layers

  • Pearl White Leghorns – Excellent layers of large, white eggs. They are our most prolific layers and have an excellent feed conversion ratio.

Brown Egg Layers

  • Red Stars – Excellent layers of large, brown eggs. They also lay well in colder months. Red Stars are sex-linked, meaning that males and females can easily be distinguished at the time of hatch by their color.
  • Black Stars – Excellent layers of large, brown eggs.  Similar to the Red Stars, they are a sex-linked variety.
  • Rhode Island Reds – Excellent layers of large, brown eggs. They are dual purpose birds, well suited for meat production and egg laying.
