đ BACK CROSS OLIVE EGGER ROOSTERS â DARK LINE EDITION đ¶ïž
Alright⊠letâs talk about the boys.
Weâve officially added Back Cross Olive Egger roosters from our DARKEST lines to the lineupâand no, these arenât your average âhope for the bestâ backyard roos.
These boys have been DNA tested for the Blue Egg Gene and include:
đ Homozygous (O/O)
đ Heterozygous (O/o)đ Brown Gene (o/o)
And before anyone gets confusedâyes, even the o/o boys matter.
Why?
đ Stacked genetics.
These roosters come out of multi-generational backcrossing and selection for dark, high-impact egg color. So whether they carry blue or not, theyâre loaded with the kind of depth, pigment, and influence that builds serious programs.
Translation: These boys arenât one-trick ponies⊠theyâre genetically stacked.Yeah⊠theyâre lit đđ„
So yes⊠the genetics are doing what theyâre supposed to do đ
𧏠TESTING (BECAUSE WE DONâT GUESS OVER HERE)
Our birds are tested through:
Panhandle Poultry Labs and Kelli Durranđ If you want an official certificate through IQ Bird Testing, that can be arranged â for an additional fee.

We are committed to a holistic approach to flock management. Our hens are fed a high-quality, non-GMO layer feed that contains no corn, soy, or wheat. They also receive a non-GMO six-grain scratch blend, and all chicks are started on a non-GMO 18% grower feed sourced from a local feed company.
In addition to their formulated feeds, our birds enjoy natural supplements including herbs, kelp, yogurt, grass-fed organ meats, and fresh grass to support overall health and vitality.
