Those barnevelders have nice looking plumage! I had a black australorp pullet a few years ago and I liked her plumage as well.

Most of my flocks that I've owned through the years are from hatcheries so I know the fear of having shipped chicks too. I believe I have ordered once from mypetchicken and didn't have any issues. I have not had one dead chick from the 4 or 5 times I ordered chicks. I hope nothing but the best for your chicks and that they arrive safe.

Did you get all pullets? Have you ever had a broody chicken? In all my years of owning chickens I only had one white chochin broody lol

Barnevelders are indeed gorgeous! And from what I have gathered is that they're cold hardy enough. And I certainly need cold hardy birdies here. Just yesterday we dipped to Negative 18 degrees🥶

This is good to hear with your success with the hatcheries and the condition they show up in. Gives me some reassurance. Do you go through different hatcheries all the time? Any favorites? My pet chicken seems nice, although I will say they are pretty expensive especially with the overnight shipping but I suppose that is to be expected with live cargo and so few to begin with.

No actually! I'm happy to say I didn't get all pullets I made sure to get me a Roo as well! Wanted a male Barnevelder to go along with the three barnie pullets I'm getting. If everything goes as planned I'll get some more Barnie's to hatch out and some barnie mixes as well should be cool 😎

I have had some birds go broody on me. With my first flock ever there was this smaller white one (this flock was taken over by me as they were already at the house I had moved into) I had no idea what she was. she was white with black tips of her feathers I'm guessing she was some sort of hamburg is the best I could come up with. She laid tiny beautiful blue eggs. Some have said EE but I'm not so sure she could fly like her early jungle fowl ancestors haha I hatched out so many with her
The second flock my one Barnevelder actually went broody but stopped like 4 days in thankfully in that time one of the speckled sussex went broody and finished the job. Some have told its was more on the rarer side that either of them went into brood mode. But idk im.hopping I get some aspiring mothers to be in this flock :fl
