I am looking to buy some chicks this spring to expand my flock. I am lookling to pick them up instead of mail delivery, so I am looking for chicks in Wisconsin, or just over the border.
I like the more dual purpose birds so looking for breeds like Barred Rock, Buckeye, Orpington. Basically, a heavier bodied chicken. I have a couple of the special browns and blacks but they seem so skinny to me.
 
I’ll have Rhode Island Reds, Cinnamon Queens, and Red Rangers hatching on the 28th if interested. Located in Central Wi. I’ll also have Black & Red Stars, but doesn’t sound like what you’re looking for.
 
@EnnieM Thanks for responding. I might be interested in Rhode Island Reds and the Red Rangers.
I will have to check with DH and see what we have going. I may not be ready for chicks by the 28th though, bummer. I need to clean out the big coop and re-arrange it. Butcher my egg eaters and move the new girls to the big coop.
Then clean out their area and prep it for brooding babies.

If you’re not ready by then, I’ll also have Ameraucanas, Olive Eggers, Egyptian Fayoumi, Partridge Legbar, and a few other breeds hatching 4/11. Not all heavy breeds, but still pretty to look at lol!
