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 was at the local TSC this morning. They have the "chick area" set up with the tanks and lamps. It looks like it's ready to go.

Nobody seemed to know when they will actually have chicks for sale, though.

The TSC website states that "between" Feb 27 through March 5th. Of course, with so many stores, TSC is doing a roll out. All 1300 stores cannot open on the same day, but throughout this next week to 10 days, they will all be in the flush of Chick Days, or Chick Daze as some like to call them. Just call your local store.
