These hens are available to order and will be availlable to collect mid/late September. There are a huge variety of feather markings within the Amber Star ladies, some are more plain champagne, some are cream with brown flecks in the feathers. You choose your own bird once you are here - so the choice is up to you. Very strong robust birds with plenty of eggs each year. Personally I think they they look like toasted crumpets... 

Egg colour is ranges from Champagne to a Light Brown, and can be seen in the photo below. 

You can expect approx. 300-310 eggs per year. 

Your hen may start to lay at around 18-20 weeks old, she will be laying at 50% capacity by the time she is 22 weeks old, and will be at full laying capacity at around 30 weeks old. 

Here is our list of recommended supplements available on Amazon - we strongly suggest you have a look and buy one (they are less then £10 as a rule) as the hens will sell will shortly be coming into lay, and the supplements really do help. It's stressful enough moving coops - without then having 7 kids a week... https://amzn.to/3v29tj6
