I have two VERY sweet girls that lay everyday,(not always in the box) one's a Black orpington and the other a red. About 2 years old. Free to a GREAT home. I would even be willing to meet you half way (Lansing Michigan) if you have a free range environment for them?
I've ordered from Meyers several times, once pretty large order, other only a dozen. The customer service was great. I called before and after I received them always treated me like they had all day to talk and I was a good friend. Getting ready to order again from them
Thanks aart,I have moved them for now but I don't want to keep them confined forever. They wouldn't be happy. I have looked into rebuilding to keep them safe and its just not in the budget right now. Even if I do catch the little stinker(s) there'll be more, so I've created a seperate thread...
I have a small flock. Two of my hens are now dead. I'm pretty sure it happened during the day while lightly snowing. I can't be sure but I was told they were all there this morning when my son went to fill their water and give them their morning treats. Then this evening I went to check on...

I just googled them and they sound great! I have them on my list. When mama goes broody I'm going to order a few of these breeds. I'm excited to get some more docile hens. Mama is a sweetheart but for some reason the rest of her flock are just mean. Thanks so much for the help, I was...
Hmm, I know the baby is a RIR She was ordered as a fertilized egg from my pet chicken, but she's only 3 week's old. I hope that doesn't mean she's going to be mean like these guy's are, really the only nice one's are mama and the young red sex link. The older one's even bite me.
thanks again, they are a bit more fancy than the red sexlinks but also seem to be a bit nastier. I only have 1 chick (poor gal, wish I had more for her so she wasn't the only baby) and they got her away from mama, I heard mama screaming so ran out and saw her trying to break through the...
