It is an assortment of pullets made up of some who lay white eggs, some that lay different shades of brown eggs and possibly some Easter Eggers.

It doesn't matter how your day has gone. Always go home with your head held high. Plucked, pounded, mistreated but still with dignity. Attitude is everything!!

Years ago that was the first thing I ever ordered when I started with chicks and I think it is a wonderful, inexpensive way to introduce new people to raising chickens.  I received a nice variety of hens that helped me decide which breeds I liked and disliked!  Keep in mind your "mystery chick" will more than likely be a rooster!  

 

Good luck and have fun!

...and the ones we got laid regular brown eggs.  Not exactly the "chocolate" eggs they advertised.  We were rather disappointed.

 

1 DH, 2 DDs, 2 dogs, 2 cats, on a chicken break though hopefully that'll change soon

Wish list: Easter Eggers, Olive Eggers, Silver Spangled Hamburgs, Blue Andalusians, Black Copper Marans, Welsummers, Buff Orpingtons, Barred Rocks.  For meaties: Cornish X, though I'd like to try Freedom Rangers once to compare.
