Description:
Black Jersey Giant chickens are docile and gorgeous! While larger than most, they're not obviously out of place roaming around in a mixed flock. They make a wonderful addition to a backyard flock.
This breed was developed in New Jersey as a dual-purpose fowl (valued for meat and eggs). Consider adding one to your flock and helping keep this heritage breed going strong!
Egg Color and Production: Black Jersey Giant hens are decent layers of large brown eggs. They typically lay three brown eggs per week.
Benefits of Purchasing Pullets
- Started pullets are an excellent option for people who don't have the time, equipment, or desire to care for chicks.
- These juvenile chicks are sexed twice, once at hatch and again at six weeks old, which reduces your chance of ending up with roosters.
- The minimum order is just 2 chicks!
Additional Pullet Information
- These pullets will be vaccinated for Marek's disease and MG (Mycoplasma gallisepticum)
- Our six-week started pullets are floor-raised and socialized with humans, and their beaks are intact--we never trim.
- Please keep your 6-week-olds quarantined from your existing flock for four or more weeks, and take care when introducing them.
- Check out our Started Pullets Care Guide.
