What colors do you currently have available? Thank you

I'm looking either for day old chicks to be shipped, or hatching eggs from Washington State. I am in Wenatchee, and will consider traveling an hour away. I would prefer to purchase from somewhere close, as I don't want the eggs to have a long transit time. I am OK with purchasing quality day old...

I am going to be buying some egg laying hens in the spring. I have a lot more experience with bantams and fancy breeds than layers. I have already decided on white Leghorns and Americanas, although I am trying to decide on a brown egg laying breed. I have been looking at RIR's, Production Reds...

Adult chickens can eat Chick Starter, but chicks should not eat Layer feed.

If it is a Spangled OEGB then I would say it is a rooster, because of the coloring. The hens are much more dull.

I thought it was a frog too!

I can understand not having the time to read a whole book, when all you want is to know about one small thing. I have no idea how much you know about chickens, but to other inexperienced people, I have to say that it is extremely important to know about the basics of chicken care, and you should...

I would also say Salmon Faverolle.
