Mahanaim Farm 

Creating a future from the past

  About us/About our eggs

WE are located in beautifully Camp, Arkansas.

Our little farm is named Mahanaim (Cool old Bible word that means two camps.

We are homesteaders (A Somewhat self sufficient, self maintaining family farm).

So the money we earn here goes to preserve our little farm and our way of life for ourselves and our children (G-d willing grandchildren).

We have five children, 21,19,16 ,6 and 4, only one is a girl…lol

We home school four of our children.

We are active and supportive members of both 4-H and FFA.

On our farm we have 300 plus chickens, 250 plus ducks, 20 some geese,

A few hundred quails (it’s canning time), 20 or so doves (white and regular),3 dear peacocks, 18 turkeys,

more pigeons than I can count without an abacus. A small heard of Nubian and la Mancha Milk goats.

A nice sized herd of Jacob Sheep (Four horns rule, plus they are one of the sheep of the Bible).

A pair of very precious’s pot belly pigs (Athena and Mr. Empty pockets).

Two very spoiled Horses.

A herd of cats and four dogs.

Plus all the wild animals that eat here with them.

If you raise chickens, ducks, turkeys, emu, pheasants or other sorts of birds and want to trade eggs with us, just drop us a line at

raziel133@yahoo.com

Place hatching eggs in the subject box (I have an over active spam box)

If you are having a hard time and need help with your farm or are just getting started feel free to ask,

that is why we are here, we are all in this together.

 That said, if you are in the same boat let me know and I will put some extra goodies in the box…if you are a teacher this also applies. 

Home school family's and 4-H children and parents this applies to you as well.

Be Blessed

Your personal hatch rate will depend on many different things, such as temperature, turnings, humidity and such.

Because of this no one can guarantee a real hatch rate;

 Depending on cause I will consider resending eggs for the cost of a dollar per egg, plus shipping.

Our chickens (male and female) roam free during the day at night we put them up to bed with all the love any parent would. 

We say a blessing over them to G-d for the joy they have brought to our lives as well as eggs and meat.

They are spoiled well fed and overly loved. 

In our current flock all of our birds are healthy and happy and they are great layers.

Thus the reason for us selling some off. 

We have a full incubator; all of our little darlings look great as we have been candling them every few days.

Only the Freshest eggs will be shipped, I collect them three times daily (most of the time more).

 Each Egg will be Bubble wrapped and carefully boxed for safe arrival to you! 

  Shipping is done though the U.S. Postal Service  Priority Mail. 

If you want them sent over night it is a bit more costly but I would be happy to find out the amount for you upon request. 

I can not ship these little loves outside of the US, sorry. 

One more thing we except all donations to our farm, equipment, feed, livestock, seed…if you have it, most likely we need it…

Be Blessed Mahanaim Farm and Ranch

 

 

                                                                                                                                         

Below is a  basic look at how we wrap our eggs...it has taken us years to figure out that this is the safest and best way to ship them safely.

After the last step above the boxes are padded again and sealed than they are shipped with great love from our door to yours....

Just the blues eggs....Americana's and nothing but....Blue and Green eggs....

                                                

We have many different and wonderful birds in our little flock. 3 white Americana they are little charmers, sweet, bright white and  lay an almost sky blue egg. They are big eggs, blue inside and out.

Some of our new girls this year are rumpless, they do not have their 13th vertebra), we acquired these girls and the fella from a closed flock from a friends local farm.  they are just as cute as a button.

Our Golden Americana or Aracauna are also sweet well mannered birds, beautiful gold and brown feathers They lay bright blue eggs. These as all my Americanas has blue feet or green and in some cases willow colored feet and puffy checks…and yes and all their vertebra. 

They are just darling…go ahead ask for close up photos. Heck ask for other photos even...lol

Our blue/gray Americanas are an odd ball color that we are very proud of and hope to breed many more . They tend to lay the more olive green color eggs.   We also have a few black and gold Aracauna or Americanas and a few reds that we added threw a trade last season they lay various shades of blue/green eggs.

Our birds are highly sought after and have been winners at many County Fairs and 4-H events.

 

These have been bred to eat up all the little pests you might have laying around..i.e.Ticks, scorpions, snakes and almost any bug or small critter that they may come across (including mice...Yuck! Saw them do it myself). Their (the eggs) moms and dads keep this six plus acres squeaky clean...     

                                                                                                   

Just a little add in note, I have a lot more green and olive eggers laying this year for some reason.  I am working on fixing this and adding more blue genes back in.  they are still lovely birds and lovely eggs, I just want more blue.

Americana Eggs are  $24.95 a dozen and include priority shipping.  

          If you need fewer eggs or a lot more like 6 dozen, just email me.

If you are looking for Easter eggers look below for our very own creation Americanans.


 

                                                                            Americanas Mahanaim style....

These Aracauna/Americana/Araucanas/ Ameraucanas also known as the Easter egg chickens as they lay colored eggs. If you are looking to buy these eggs you are looking to get a nice mix of lovely birds as described below. Mine lay many lovely large blue eggs inside and out. Some are laying pink, two for sure are laying a pale yellow, I have a few that lay green and a scant few  that lay spotted eggs.  The spotted eggs are blue with a sort of odd reddish brown colored spots. 

All of the birds in the photo are ours, yup! We are proud parents and have many more photo’s and will email as many to you, as you like.  

We have many different and wonderful birds in our little flock. 3 white Americana or Aracauna if you like, They are little charmers, sweet, bright white and they lay most of our blue eggs. They are huge eggs, blue inside and out. Some of our new girls this year are rumpless, they do not have their 13th vertebra), we acquired these girls and the fella from a closed flock from a friends local farm.  They are just as cute as a button.

Our Golden Americana or Aracauna are also sweet well mannered birds, beautiful gold and brown feathers They lay bright blue eggs. These as all my Americanas has blue feet or green and in some cases willow colored feet and puffy checks…and yes and all their vertebra. 

They are just darling…go ahead ask for close up photos. 

Our blue/gray Americana or Aracauna is an odd ball color that we are very proud of and hope to breed many more like her. We also have a few black and gold Aracauna or Americanas and a few reds that we added threw a trade last season.

Along with the Americans listed above, this year you will also get some of our  new Americans. You will get our new Americana Turkens, our Crested Americans and our Pheasant Cross Americans along with some other really neat colors that you don't normally see Americana's in .  That's  a mix than anyone would be proud of.  

Our birds are highly sought after and have been winners at many County Fairs and 4-H events.

These all lay blue, green, pink and yellow tint (when available).  Again you will get a mix of eggs, please do not email me and say, I only want blue or green or pink or yellow.  Just because one bird lays a blue egg does not mean it's baby's will.  I have had a pink egg layer hatch chicks and those chicks at maturity lay green eggs.  It's a strange think but also very cool. 

These have been bred to eat up all the little pests you might have laying around..i.e.Ticks, scorpions,

snakes and almost any bug or small critter that they may come across

(including mice...Yuck! Saw them do it myself).

Their (the eggs) moms and dads keep this six plus acres squeaky clean...

Naked Neck (Turken)

Ours are great layers and very gentle and loyal.

They are colorful and if you are looking for a duel purpose birds, this bird is for you.

The Naked Neck is a breed of chicken that is naturally devoid of feathers on its neck and vent. The breed is also called the Transylvanian Naked Neck, as well as the Turken. Originally from Central Europe, it originated in Hungary and was largely developed in Germany. The name "Turken" arose from the mistaken idea that the bird was a hybrid of a chicken and the domestic turkey. Naked Necks are fairly common in Europe today, but are rare in North America. The trait for a naked neck is a dominant one controlled by one gene and is fairly easy to introduce into other breeds,[1] however these are hybrids rather than true Naked Necks, which is a breed recognized by the American Poultry Association since 1965, it was introduced in the Britain in the 1920's.

 

 

 

 


 

Silkies

I myself love these birds they are sweet and well mannered, easy to care for and a joy to watch. 

They will brood any type of egg and make great moms.

Our silkies are flock bred you will great a great mix of color.

We have buff, blue, black, white, splash, partridge and Cuckoo and try to add other colors are they become available.

 

 

The information below comes from:  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silkie

Silkies are one of the oldest breeds of chicken. It is unknown exactly where or when fowl with their singular combination of attributes first appeared, but the most well documented point of origin is China. Other places in Southeast Asia have been named as possibilities, such as India and Java.[1] The earliest surviving written account of Silkies comes from Marco Polo, who wrote of a furry chicken in the 13th century, during his travels in Asia.[2] In 1599, Ulisse Aldrovandi, a writer and naturalist at the university of Bologna, Italy published a comprehensive treatise on chickens which is still read and admired today. In it, he spoke on "wool-bearing chickens" and ones "clothed with hair like that of a black cat".[3]

A black Silkie hen and her chick. The breed is renowned for its broodiness and mothering abilities

Silkies most likely made their way to the West via the Silk Route and maritime trade. The breed was recognized officially in the North America via acceptance in to the Standard of Perfection in 1874 (the first year of publication).[4] Once Silkies became more common in the West, many myths were perpetuated about them. Early Dutch breeders told buyers they were the offspring of chickens and rabbits,[5] while sideshows promoted them as having actual mammalian fur.[6]

In the 21st century, Silkies are one of the most popular and ubiquitous ornamental breeds of chicken. They are often kept as ornamental or pet chickens by backyard keepers and in zoos, and are also often used to incubate and raise the offspring of other poultry (including waterfowl like ducks and geese) and game birds such as quail and pheasants.[7]

Silkies are often considered a bantam breed, but this varies according to region, and many breed standards class them officially as large fowl. Almost all North American strains of the breed are bantam sized, but in Europe the large is the original version. However, even "large" Silkies are relatively small chickens, with standard size males weighing only four pounds (1.8 kilos), and females weigh three pounds (1.36 kilos).[8] The American Standard of Perfection calls for males that are 36 ounces (1 kilo), and females that are 32 ounces (910 grams).[9]

Silkie plumage is unique among chicken breeds; Silkie-like feathering may appear as a recessive mutation in individuals of other varieties, but no other true breed has it. It has been compared to silk,[10] and to fur. Their feathers lack functioning barbicels, and are thus similar to down on other birds. The overall result is a soft, fluffy appearance.[11]

Silkies most likely originate in China, but other Southeast Asian countries are also sometimes proposed. The first written account of the breed by a white European comes from Marco Polo, who mentioned chickens with fur-like plumage in his Asian travelogues in the 13th century.

All Silkies have black skin, bones and grayish-black meat; their Chinese language name is wu gu ji (烏骨鷂[13], literally "crow boned chicken"), meaning "black-boned chicken".[14] Melanism which extends beyond the skin into an animal's connective tissue is a rare trait, and the Silkie is one of only a handful of chickens to exhibit it. Disregarding color, the breed does not generally produce as much as the more common meat breeds of chicken.[15]

Silkies lay a fair number of cream-colored eggs, but production is often interrupted due to their extreme tendency to go broody; a hen will produce 100 eggs in an ideal year. Their capacity for incubation, which has been selectively bred out of most egg-laying fowl, is often exploited by poultry keepers by allowing Silkies to raise the offspring of other birds. In addition to being good mothers, Silkies are universally renowned for their calm, friendly temperament. They do well in confinement, and interact very well with children. This docility can cause Silkies to be bullied by more active or aggressive birds when kept in mixed flocks.[16]

Muscovys are the only domestic ducks that are not derived from Mallard stock. They are a South American species. Males are huge, weighing up to twelve pounds, with the  females grow to be about seven  Their feet have strong sharp claws and are built to grasp, so that they can perch on branches, this makes them sort of hard to deal with sometimes.  Muscovy's will often fly up and roost.

Khaki Campbell Ducks

 

The Khaki Campbell was introduced in Great Britain by Mrs. Campbell of Uley at the turn of this century. The origins are from the wild mallard; the fawn and white Runner and the Rouen. She only produced a simple breed standard initially because the main purpose was to retain the egg laying properties. Ours lay over 300+eggs per year all year round.

Cayuga Ducks

 

This is one of the breeds of duck developed in North America their origin is lake Cayuga, in New York State. It is thought to have been breed from the large black ducks that have been coming to the lake since the 1850's. It is a hardy and quiet breed. These ducks are best known for their plumage, which is a brilliant greenish-black. They are quite amazing to see in the sunlight.

These ducks are great for eating and for egg laying, laying 100 or more eggs a year.

Early in the season, Cayuga eggs are usually black or dark gray, fading to light gray or blue over the laying season.
