The elegant Hamburgs are petite and active--and they are an old, traditional breed whose origin goes back hundreds of years. In both England
and Holland, they were such faithful layers that a common
name for them is "the Dutch Everyday Layer."
The rare blue variety that we offer is slightly larger than most Hamburgs and not quite as active. Still, they are high fliers and can jump fences and enclosures! Hamburgs eat little to produce their prolific numbers of small to medium white eggs, so they cost less to feed than many other breeds. Their rose comb makes them tolerant of cold, as well. They are simply wonderful all-around homesteading birds, and they rarely go broody.
These gorgeous
birds will follow the rules of Andalusian blue genetics, so the eggs will hatch in ratios of approximately 50% blue, 25% black and 25% splash. With rose
combs, white ear lobes and blue legs, these are excellent small birds for the home flock, and a great way for fans of "blue" to have some fun, efficient and economical layers.
