Build your ideal laying flock in one order. The Best Layer Sampler brings together five of the most dependable, time-tested egg-laying breeds — 3 pullets of each — so you get consistent production, genetic diversity, and a flock that works together beautifully from day one.

What's Included

  • 3 White Leghorn Pullets — The gold standard of egg production. Prolific layers of large white eggs, active and efficient.
  • 3 Rhode Island Red Pullets — Hardy, adaptable, and reliable. A classic dual-purpose breed with excellent brown egg production.
  • 3 Plymouth Barred Rock Pullets — Calm, cold-hardy, and consistent. Beautiful barred plumage with steady brown egg output year-round.
  • 3 Black Sex links - A hardy, friendly, high-producing brown egg layer.
  • 3 Black Australorp Pullets — Record-setting layers known for their gentle temperament and glossy black feathering.

Bundle Highlights

  • 15 pullets total — all female, all proven layers
  • 200–280+ brown and white eggs per year per hen at peak production
  • Breed diversity for a resilient, balanced flock
  • Cold-hardy breeds suited for year-round production
  • Ships as day-old chicks via USPS Priority Mail Express

Why a Sampler?

Different breeds peak at different times and respond differently to seasonal changes. A mixed flock means more consistent egg production across the year — and a more interesting, dynamic backyard experience.

Chick care overview

Brooder temperature: Start at 95°F for the first week, reducing by 5°F each week until fully feathered.

Food & water: Offer chick starter feed and fresh water immediately. Dip each chick's beak gently into the water on arrival to encourage drinking.

Hydration boost: We include hydration supplements in your shipment — add to water for the first 24–48 hours to help chicks recover from transit.

Space: Allow at least 0.5 sq ft per chick in the brooder for the first few weeks.

Watch for: Huddling under the heat source (too cold), panting or moving away from heat (too warm). Active, spread-out chicks are happy chicks.
