My spitzhauben's are laying well, so I am offering 10+ eggs for $35 which includes priority shipping to anywhere in the continental U.S. If anyone wants 2 orders in the same box .... 20+ extras ... I'll reduce the price to $55 which includes priority shipping to anywhere in the continental U.S.
The Appenzeller originates from Switzerland. They have small wattles and combs, so they don't have much to get frostbitten. They have a well spread tail, full hackle and fairly hard, tight plumage. On the head is a horn type comb with two small rounded spires and the unique crest points forward like the bonnets on the traditional costume bonnets worn by the ladies in the Appenzellerland region. Spitzhauben actually means pointed bonnet. They are beautiful, curious birds that are a joy to watch. Hens lay a medium/large white egg. I am continually improving my flock by eliminating birds that develop the "Polish" looking tophats so that my birds are more true to the breed with the forward pointing crests.
