Mt. Healthy is my only experience,so far, and I've been very pleased. All the chicks I got were very healthy and robust from the get-go. I only had one with a minor pasty butt problem and that cleared up right away. I did pick my chicks up. Don't know if that makes a difference or not. Cincinnati is pretty far from Texas!

Here are mine at 8 wks old...and they prefer that I only feed them. Really don't like me to hold them. My black sexlinks are much friendlier but I have hopes for these:

BTW.........when i said sit in a chair and have treats LOL.....i meant sit out where the chickens are and have treats for them..........but it sounded like i was telling you to hide your sadness by eating

That was funny!

Those babies are cuties!

I got my Golden Comets from Mt. Healthy Hatchery too. Beautiful birds and so friendly.

My comets are from Mt. Healthy too. My kids lug them around all of the time. They are big pets that want to come in the house. They ignore the cats, and if one is to close, the put their heads down and charge them.

Well, they are entertaining, friendly, smart, and hardy. Ours are all entering middle age now, so they don't lay as much and not in the winter at all. But we're still happy to have them around.

Oh, also, ours roost as high as they can get. They are pretty good flyers.
