Welcome! Sounds like you need at least 6 Rhode Island Reds! Brown Eggs, hens rarely go broody. Lay around upwards of 300 eggs per year for mature hens. Dual purpose, good for meat too. Worth the cost to start with pullets. There are some good white egg layers too.D
Do you happen to have his contact info? I am SEARCHING for some laying hens. I only have 1!
Anyone else know odd anyone who may have any breed of good laying hens. I need some eggs! When you have three teens, you wipe out a dozen every time you cook bfast! I live in Talladega county but would drive up to an hour.
