Hi all...

After a little break from the chicken scene I'm back. I cut back on a lot of my animals after moving back up to Mesa. I decided to get rid of my hens in October, because my dogs were eyeballing them and I didn't want to find any casualties. Well, I'm now down to 1 dog and she doesn't seem to have any bird hunting in her as she lets the pigeons eat out of her bowl when she is laying a foot away. So, yesterday I picked up five 8 month old Brown Leghorns. They are doing great and seem to be very grateful to have a yard to explore. The guy I bought them from had about 35 in a 10x10 pen and it was pretty cramped!

Anyway, I'm back and I will probably be hatching out some of their eggs as they were in a single breed pen with 3 roos. So, if there are any of you AZ peeps that would like some Brown Leghorns I will keep you posted with the incubation.

It's good to be back!

How much did he charge you for the 8 Brown Leghorns and where is he located? Is he willing to give up another three or four?

My one Brown Leghorn gives me an egg almost every day with a nice glossy shell.

I paid $10 each for 5 hens that are 8 months old. I'm not sure if he has anymore, he was taking about 20 of them to a guy in Tempe today. I found his ad on CL if you want to look him up. His name is Dan.

How old is your Brown Leghorn?
