Leghorn
Reviewed by Chicken Goddess

Leghorns are great egg laying chickens. They are friendly to other Leghorns and can easily fly. The only problems is that they are bad in the pecking order and they can make a mess of the yard....

I will start by saying that I love Australorps. In fact, my very favorite hen is an Australorp. She is such a sweet chicken and just let's you walk right up to her to pick her up. She doesn't run...

I've read that name somewhere, but there was nothing bad or good attached to it. I'm going to visit the site and see what I think of them, at least at first glance.

I bought my first chicks from them. They got the order wrong and sent a chick with an obvious beak deformity that I had to put down, so there are better places to order from.

I have 2 rouen ducklings (6 days old) from efowl. Havnt had an issue with them yet! They arrived a little chilly (the heat pack wasnt warm), thats my only complaint. They are super cute, and very social. See my other threads for pics.

I think with any website you will have good and bad reviews. And you have to remember also....if someone has a bad review they will write about it and complain to high heaven, but not as many happy customers will write about it and boast about their experiance.

Not affialiated with 'em, but just a content customer :-). I would prolly order again.

They steal BYC members' pics to falsely represent their own crappy birds. I will never buy from them. They stole a pic from me and at least 3 other BYC'ers! Their birds must not be good enough for pictures. sickbyc

I've heard that they are a broker and don't actually hatch any chicks. They have birds drop shipped. If that's important to you, you might want to verify.

They get eggs from MetzersFarms.com it would just be easier to order from there and not from them.

I ordered 15 chicks from eFowl and actually got an extra pullet in with the mix! They arrived safe and healthy and are now five weeks old and getting HUGE! I am pleased with my experience with eFowl and the birds are very healthy!

An awesome husband, two wonderful kids, a loving dog, 1 RIR roo, 4 BSL roos, 1 RIR pullet, 1 NHR pullet, 3 Barred Rock pullets and 10 GSL pullets in the coop, 7 fuzzy butts in the brooder and a wonderful Savior guiding and directing it all: what could be better than that?
