If you head on over to the official Omlet website shop, you’ll notice you can order Eglu chickens along with your chicken coop. At the moment of writing they offer 2 breeds of chickens named Gingernut Ranger and Miss Pepperpot.

Cute names for cute chickens. You have to admit Omlet has a thing with names ;-)

Gingernut Ranger
Dark russet red with accented black tail feathers, this is a perky chicken. A consistent layer of large tasty eggs, she has an inquisitive nature and will never be far away if you are out in the garden.

Miss Pepperpot
Beautiful iridescent beetle black feathers characterize this hen. She has been bred from the Rhode Island Red and the Barred Plymouth Rock to create a lively bird capable of laying over 300 eggs per year.

Regardless of the breed, they cost £15 each.

If those two breeds aren’t what you’re looking for, you might be interested in Eglu chickens from other Omlet product owners. Omlet dedicated a new part of their site to the buying and selling of chickens from all over the UK.

You can choose the breed, location, read reviews,… It’s a nice way to get started. Once you’re more experienced at keeping chickens, you’re bound to discover other places where you can buy the breed you like (perhaps even cheaper than on the Omlet site). Remember, the Eglu chickens are mostly offered for your convenience, buy an Eglu chicken coop along with a couple of chickens, but you’re free to choose other chicken breeds that may appeal to you more.
