So, we bought two little chicks about a month ago for our son. They were supposed to be pullets. Nope! Both roos and they are already fighting. Guess we'll be eating those guys. *sigh* Still need a few more laying hens so I asked hubby to pick what chicken breed he wanted. He chose Easter Eggers. We need two pullets to be future laying hens. I would also like to raise two or three turkeys for Thanksgiving (give away two, keep one). Our oven is not big enough to hold a bird over about 16 pounds, though. I'm thinking heritage breed?
In summary, our WANT list:
1) Two baby Easter Egger hens.
2) Two or three heritage breed turkeys to be purchased in time for modest sized Thanksgiving birds.
