This batch of Whiting True Green pullets will be ready for pickup on July 15th! Their hatch date was 6/5/23. At 6 weeks old, these ladies will already be outside and won’t require a brooder or heat source. Whiting True Greens lay 300-350 large green eggs a year. The exact shade of green varies between adult hens (each hen will lay nearly the same color for their lifespan). Whitings have an excellent feed-to-egg ratio, are wonderful foragers, and are heat tolerant. 
 
Our pre-order grow outs are ordered from Murray McMurray. They are hatchery sexed pullets and vaccinated for Marek's at the hatchery. We do not vaccinate for coccidia as the cost of unmedicated feed is much higher (if they are vaccinated, they must have unmedicated chick starter). 
 
In order to provide our customers with the healthiest birds possible, we raise our pullets in both Hatching Time brooders and Hatching Time/GQF grow-off pens. We feed medicated chick starter from the time they arrive. They do have time outdoors, as weather permits. We love being able to roll their brooders and grow-off pens outdoors to give them access to sunshine and fresh air. 
 
Please note, the remaining balance is due at time of pickup.
