Going crazy for a Wyandotte

[blackwingedwolf]

I have always wanted a Silver Laced Wyandotte hen, but the problem is, I can't find anyone who sells it close to my city and when I go to buy one online, it claims that I need to get 15 chicks... I just want one. Where can I go to get one online or close to El Paso, TX? Any and all help is appreciated

Have you tried feed stores or local chicken swaps. they usually carry silver laced. However, you should get at least 2 so that they have a friend.

the only feed store I found only have one sort of hen, and that was the Rhode Island hen. I never even heard of a local chicken swap .-.

Hello and Welcome To BYC! Try posting in the Texas state thread, maybe somebody on there knows where you can find one. https://www.backyardchickens.com/t/44/texas there is also a Texas swap thread https://www.backyardchickens.com/t/631317/texas-auctions-swaps/160 when you have 20 posts you can also put a Want ad up in the Buy-Sell-Trade forum

I just found this http://chickensforbackyards.com/ website. Is this a legit website or should I be worried about buying from them? it seems like it'll allow me to buy one chick

You could try "My pet chicken," one of BYC's sponsors. I think they will sell 3 or more. chicks You can even choose female or male - no surprises.
