Description:

Exclusively ours! Want to have the most unique chicken in town? Cuckoo Bluebars are just the ticket. This beautiful designer breed is a super-prolific layer of large, light blue eggs. Its plumage is a beautiful barred blue, rather than the more common barred black plumage, with darker hackle feathers. On the hen the barring can be more subtle, but on the rooster it's just spectacular. 

Cuckoo Bluebars are friendly and smart. They tolerate confinement but love to forage and love to lay their eggs outdoors. We've been surprised by customer reports of their personalities, too. Although the breeds that went into this cross tend to be flighty, active and avoidant, nearly every reviewer has attested to their docility and friendliness! Go figure.

This variety is a custom cross, bred exclusively for My Pet Chicken. On average, 15/16 pullets will lay light blue eggs when they mature. Because these are first-generation crosses (F1), statistically, 1 out of 16 birds will not lay blue eggs.


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.

Pullet Shipping Information

  • All Started Juveniles are shipped USPS Express Mail.
  • Due to import regulations, we cannot ship to Virginia, Iowa, Vermont, Texas, Hawaii, and Minnesota.
  • Pullets will ship on Tuesday or Wednesday of the designated shipping week. You will receive an email with tracking information once they leave the farm.
