The Welsummer chicken is a breed from Welsum Holland, they lay a large, dark, terracotta-brown egg with lots of spots and dots. Welsummers are a very calm, friendly bird and a favorite on the farm. This is the chicken that played the Corn Flakes rooster "Cornelius". Welsummer eggs are very pretty with spots and dots. A hen will lay the same egg pattern throughout her life so you can select for more or less spots, large or small spots by hatching the eggs you like best. The Welsummer hens are a very beautiful shimmery golden color, very striking in the sunlight. Our breeds did not come from a large hatchery but only from the best line of Welsummers around. You cannot get a dark spotted egg from a large hatchery. I know this information form speaking with our customers. It pays to have an open line of Commnication with your customers! We are now offering the Welsummers as sexed chicks, so that you can order hen chicks or cockerel chicks. Keep in mind that sexing day old chicks is NOT 100% accurate and mistakes can be made but we will do our absolute best for our customers. ATTENTION: We require orders of a minimum of 10-day old chicks. These 10 can be a mix of any of our breeds. This keeps the babies warm and healthy in the box. We guarantee live delivery of 10 or more chicks. If you choose vaccinated chicks, we vaccinate for Marek's only, you will need to feed chicks a medicated chick feed. If you wish to order fewer you can contact us. This would be for an order for farm pickup of less than 10, or an order of less than 10 that has no live delivery guarantee.
