Baby Chicks: Bountiful Blue Egg Layer Female Reviews

4.6 Rating 149 Reviews
I got her June 25 with some other breeds. Theory said they would start to lay egg in 6 months. Well, I was expecting Christmas' present not under my tree but inside their egg's box. Nothing, and I think the cold of winter may the cause. I was read the review of this breed not that great. so she wasn't the one who I expected to have the first egg. 1/4/19, I got surprise. A pale greenish egg in the box! I immediately know it was from her. I have my flock with different eggs' color. After that day, she never forget to lay one for me. The last 2 day, her eggs getting more to bluish shade than greenish. Before she lays egg, she a bit skittish and love to fly. Now, she looks calm and docile. My others not start laying their first egg yet, even they were the greatest egg layer by the review. I'm pretty happy with Daisy, my super blue.

I have 3 SBEL hens who recently started laying. All of their eggs are the same very light shade of blue. Most people think they're white. They're very flighty. I keep them with my black copper marans and the SBEL's are the only ones to ever get out of the pen and they do so daily. They are very smart though because they know how to get right back in when I feed them. They run up to me and follow me as I walk out to feed them, but they never let me touch them. The eggs are smaller than my black coppers, but not tiny. I would say they're a medium sized egg. They are very frequent layers as I usually get 3 blue eggs per day.

Im not going to lie...I was a bit concerned after reading reviews of these birds but I was too tempted not to try them. My girl is beautiful!! White with a few black flecks sprinkled about her so accordingly she is named Sprinkles. She's started laying now and her eggs are a soft greenish-teal but oh boy does she lay!! She's also extremely sweet and social. Every day she comes to me to be petted and held. I know each chicken has their own personality but her's is amazing! I am a little, I stress LITTLE, disappointed her eggs aren't more blue but what she lacks in color she more than makes up for in sweetness and beauty. So if you are interested and read all the bad reviews as I did just know that there is an amazing girl out there from this line. I have thank my pet chicken for this amazing girl.

I purchased two day old pullets the first week of April and got my first egg the second week of August. These two hens are extremely smart and though they are a little skittish, they are friendly towards people they know. I am very happy they are a part of my little starter flock!

My 2 birds are beautiful. They have the sweetest personality and very friendly. They are my first birds to come up and greet me everyday. Our first bird is laying green eggs. I had hoped for blue. The other hasn’t started yet. However despite her laying a different color egg than I had hoped she is a keeper and wouldn’t care if she didn’t lay any. She is a wonderful addition to our flock.

So happy with these nice birds that lay the largest blue eggs I have ever seen. While they go broody sometimes and can be a bit bossy, I really like these birds and those pretty, big, blue eggs.
