Murray McMurray "Special Assorted Bargain"

[cbascom]

Has anyone ever ordered this? I am considering it for my next order. Sounds like fun to have a "grab bag" and figure out what they are! Probably wind up eating most of the roosters, but might get some good hens.

Cochin, Black (1M/1F), Cochin, Silver Laced (1M/1F), Langshan, Black (2M), BBOEG (3M/1F), EEs (2M/1F, Hamburg, Spangled (1M), Langshan, White (1F), Cochin, Blue (1F), Maran, Cuckoo (1M), Rock, White (1M/1F), Cornish, Light (1F), Leghorn, Brown (2M/1F), BLRW (3F- all 3 were splash)
Last year I ordered 15 in Feb?, they sent 16, all lived. 8 featherlegged, 1 Cochin, Partridge(M), 3 Cochins, White (2M/1F),2 Cochins, Black (1M/1F), Langshans, Black (1M/1F), also a White Giant (M), Sumatra (M), 1 EE (F), 2 Minorcas, Buff, (both F), 1 BBOEG (M), 2 Leghorn, Brown (1M/1F)
I was impressed with the # of different breeds and the sex ratio was pretty good also.

The variety and genders you received is encouraging to me. That may be my next order, unless I just build my own assortment, although that would probably be more expensive. Thank you!
