    Review by '' on item 'Easter Eggers'

    the only reason to buy an Easter Eggers is for the novelty of blue or green eggs if you get them for any other reason prepare to be disappointed their not that great. BUT i only bought them for the novelty so ill give them a five out of five

    Review by '' on item 'Rhode Island Red'

    in my opinion this breed is probably the one of the best chicken breed ive ever had the pleasure to own in my life. They lay large beautiful brown eggs every single day even during the winter their winter hardy the only problem i can see with them is that they are extremely aggressive

    Review by '' on item 'Wyandotte'

    even though in my experience wyandottes weren't the best layers nor the best broodies i would still buy them just for the fact that ive never had a pecking problem with them. meaning they have never pecked the new chicks ive added to my flock ever

    i love them never had any problem with this breed. The roos can become rather large and loud but have an even temper. They dont seem to be afraid of people even with minimal direct human interaction, they are hardy, and they can live practically in any climate making them a good first chicken
