In 2012, Art started helping out at Freedom Ranger Hatchery. It didn’t take long for the newest hatchery to be added to the family—initially known as Art’s Hatchery, and now Hillside Hatchery. Specializing in egg-layer breeds, the newest of our hatcheries is already well-established, providing high-quality birds for sale…just like the rest of our family of hatcheries at Freedom Ranger.

The Friendly, Chatty Olive Egger Chicken

If variations in egg color are what you want, then Olive Egger Chickens are right for you! The Olive Egger Hens are known for producing large eggs in various shades ranging from blue-green to olive green. They are known as the only hen to lay olive-colored eggs.

The Olive Eggers Heritage

Olive egger chicks are a hybrid breed. They are recognized by crossing a dark brown egg with a blue egg. Some blue egg layers commonly used are Ameraucanas, Araucanas, and Legbars. Brown egg layers used to breed olive egger chicks include Marans, Barnevelders, and Welsummers.

The breed of the parents will determine the color of the adult Olive Egger Chicken. When Olive Egger eggs hatch, males often have a white dot on their heads, while females do not.

The Olive Egger Temperament

Because olive egger hens and roosters can have various parents, their temperaments can be diverse. Overall, though, they tend to be more mellow and docile. Even though they are quite chatty, it’s usually quiet banter, and they rarely cluck loudly. They love to roam your backyard or farm in search of treats, making them the ideal free-range bird.

Order Olive Egger Chicks Here

Whether you want all Olive Egger hens, all roosters, or a mix of both, you can find them here! The Olive Egger eggs are hatched at our Hillside Hatchery, one of the four hatcheries part of the Freedom Ranger family.
