Whiting True Blue chickens are a relatively new chicken breed. They are the ultimate Okie bird with a good disposition and ability to tolerate heat. Whitings are some of the most prolific layers, laying up to 300 eggs per year. Another great feature of this chicken is the large, bright blue eggs they lay. These chickens tend to lay longer than other breeds for up to 3 years. Whitings are very popular and won't last long so get your order in early before they are gone!
