I have MANY hens that just won't stop setting. A hen will go missing and show up 21 days later with quite a few babies. I already have more than I want and am willing to sell a few that just won't stop. They are free range and big, fat, girls. They are the daughters of daughters etc so I can't tell you exactly what breed they are. Our first flock consisted of Rhode Island Reds, Buff Orpingtons, Black Jersey Giants, Aracaunas, and Dominicks. They were here 7 years ago and one of them liked setting so we let her. Big mistake, now all the generations after her are setters. You may want a hen that will set for you but having 35 hens that all want to set it a little bit much. Please let me know if you would like one or two of these. Thank you

Agh... this is my first post. I just got three chinese silkies on wed from mailorder. one was dead, and the other died last night. Now i have 1 lonely chic that cried herself to sleep last night. (seriously). It will take 3 more weeks to mail order new ones. Can you help me out with ANY bantam variety at least one so my little chic is not lonely.
Thank you colette
