Review on:
They are sweet and fun. They don't lay eggs as often as production hens, but they are friendly and can tolerate New England winters. I have two roosters that never fight (I had a 3rd one who did fight, he's gone now) and the roosters are good husbands and fathers.
The turquoise eggs are worth the wait. The hens sometimes go broody, but not enough to be a problem.
