I need/buy hens -MA

[Namrag]

Hi,
I would like to buy 3 hens ready to lay but I've only found chicks locally on Craiglist. Does anyone in the New England area have hens for sale that started laying eggs recently? We are willing to travel a bit to get healthy hens, but would prefer to purchase them in Massachusetts if possible.

Thank you!

Check out Orchard Ridge Farm in Maine. Just spoke with them myself and they have about 1500 birds of various ages.

Went to Orchard Farm in Maine today - about 1-1/2 hour drive with holiday traffic. There are TONS of birds available of all ages and breeds. I had only intended to get one lady and came home with five, three of which are ready to lay. The farmer's son was quite knowledgeable, did not rush me, showed me every bird I wanted to see, then carefully packed the ladies up for their trip back to New Hampshire. Not Massachusetts, but definitely worth the ride for mature hens.
