In the Brooder
Hello! We are very new to the world of chickens. We had five that we hatched from our incubator this year and they were about 3 months old - 4 ISA Brown & 1 rooster. We let them out of the run to roam on our fenced in acre when we are home only. Last week a fox got into our high gate in broad daylight while we were home and killed all but one before we could get outside. So I have 1 ISA Brown pullet left and want to get four more.
So my questions are... Where are the best places to look? Any advice on what to look for and what to watch out for? I've never done this before and I want good, healthy pullets that will be good egg-layers and get along with our sweet Henrietta. I looked on craigslist and most people are selling hens and roosters for food but one person had a bunch of ISA Brown pullets for sale.
