EGGCITING NEWS.....
You can now place an order for Pre Orders for the 2026 Season.
Placing an order for Pre Orders will assure your name and order being placed on a wait list. Orders will ship as soon as birds are laying again & in the order they're received. Local pickup will go out as available as soon as February.
As we know, nature does it's own thing. So, orders could take a few months to ship. I will reach out within 1-2 weeks of your order shipping to let you know that your order is up.
At this time, I'm unable to give an exact shipping date. Though, I expect it will be Feb-April 2026 depending on Winter Weather in your & our area.
THANK YOU so much for being such a valuable part of supporting our dream and helping to support Rice and Shine Farms.

Our Birds
We take great care in selecting and breeding birds that excel in both quality and character. We have over 10 years of breeding experience & 6 of breeding specifically for egg color. We strive towards SOP and breed standards as well as egg color.
2026 Breeding & Pen Specifics
We have several pens setup where we're working on Pure Breeds as well as crosses. Our BCM pen has several Splash hens covered by a BCM Roo for a high chance of Splash in BCOE offspring.
We're also working more on Back Crossing/BC in multiple pens, this year & ongoing. This includes BC Olives and BC Blues. Multigenerational crosses is where you get into brighter blues and greens from multiple generations of back crossing. We'll have a project pen setup for OE/OE as well which is where you get into the really fun colors, heavy blooms and speckles.
We offer another special project of Large Fowl Frizzled OE/EE. These are multigenerational frizzled that are not bantam sized. So, you can have Frizzled birds that are hardy, they can be flock mates with other large fowl breeds AND they lay colored eggs.
Another special ongoing project is creating Olive Eggers using a Homozygous (double blue egg gene) OE Roo. This Roo is showing Dominant white genetics and producing Ermine chicks. We're very excited about working with him this year as he produces Ermine as well as carries O/O which will guarantee OE in the pairings in his pen.
The 2026 Season will be our most exciting Season to date and I am so excited to share it with you.
