Hello and welcome from Western Kentucky. You will enjoy your chickens and now you have friends to trade with to keep your bloodlines heathy.

Good luck, that is a big job. I don't think I could afford to feed them.

Congratulations.

Our local TSC sells both straight run and pullets.

Beautiful family, I hope you enjoy your new birds.

Congratulations and good luck.

Hello and welcome from Western KY. I have 16 orps, 4 barred rocks and 4 rir's.

Sorry for your losses, but the information you provided was awesome.
