Description
Isbar chickens are known for their hardiness, beauty, and egg-laying capabilities. They are becoming increasingly popular among small farmers, hobbyists, and urban agriculturalists alike.
The Isbar is one of the only chicken breeds to naturally lay green eggs. From a Swedish pastor.
Appearance
Swedish Isbar chickens come in 3 main colors:
black
blue
blue black splash
Egg Production
These birds are excellent producers! They lay around 250 large green eggs per year. Isbars are cold hardy and continue to lay in the cold months, which is a huge benefit to cold climate chicken keepers like us!
Their beautiful eggs vary from mint to moss green and sometimes have a brownish speckled overlay. I’ve actually had a couple of Isbar eggs with a white-speckled overlay!

Temperament
Isbars are known for their calm and docile temperament, making them great for backyard flocks. They are friendly and curious birds that enjoy human interaction, ours never miss an opportunity to visit with us. Our Isbars don’t love to be held, but they love to follow us around to see what we’re up to, and they come for treats every time!
