Meyers Hatchery catalog for next year are out. I looked at Cackle online and will be calling them. Wonder if they will ship to Ohio.But yes there are catalogs from some hatcheries, check online. Some only do online while others print. Love Meyers but my Cochins come from a small hatchery who only posts online. I can drive there in an hour too.Meyers is across the state and I only have one chicken crate so far.Need a quail crate soon.

Thanks for the info. Still new to the whole chicken thing. How long do these girls continue to bless us with eggs?

They usually slow down more & more starting in their 2nd year. I have a 4 year old hen that hasn't laid an egg in almost 3 months. I just haven't gotten around to dispatching her.

Okay, sorry. 1 egg doesn't sound like much, but we haven't gotten any this month.
