New Member looking for pullets in Minnesota

[BluffCountryShepherdess]

My name is Nancy. I live in Southeastern Minnesota. I just joined the BYC and am in search of a few (probably 3) pullets. I'm thinking I would like Easter Eggers, Golden Laced Wyandotts and/or Aruacanas (sp?).

I only have 3 chickens now ~ 2 roosters and a hen! See why I'm looking for pullets? Actually, the three get along very well. But I would like to add a couple more to my little flock. I also raise Shetland sheep. I have a website at: http:www.bluffcountryshetlands.com and a blog (with pictures of my rooster!) at: http:www.shepherdsvoice.blogspot.com

I may also be interested in 3 or 4 Guinee hens. Again, pardon my spelling. I'm NEW to this chicken ~ farmyard fowl ~ game! ;-)

Looking forward to learning from you!

Be sure you check out Craig's list for your area - that's how I found my chicks - and I was able to see where they were born and how clean the facilities were. Good luck!

I am from central MN and there is a hatchery not to far from me called Brau's Hatchery. They do not have a website but have plenty of birds. Including Americanans (Easter Eggers), that is where my girls came from. Might be to far for you to drive but if you are interested I have a brochure I can email you this evening, just let me know if you want it. Be sure to check Craigslist, there seems to be a lot of them on there right now!

Thanks for the welcome!

I would love to see the brochure from the MN hatchery.
I tried looking on Craigslist, yesterday, but couldn't figur out how to
narrow my search down to Minnesota...

Time for me to go to work...

I will email it to you, it is a PDF. Here is the link to Craigslist where you can select the city in MN closes to you. Just go into the Farm+Garden section and look around. It would be easiest to do a search for "chicks, chickens" or something like that.

Hi Nancy!

from S. Florida. It won't take long to become an expert on chickens from all the "experts" on this forum!

Glad you decided to join us!

from UT! Originally from MN, but the cold winters forced me away. I was going to suggest Stromberg's, but they only offer chicks in quantities of 25 (I believe) AND they are in Pine River. That would be a brutal drive. My next guess would be to try Craig's List.
