Thank you! I started with nine laying hens two years ago. A friend of my daughter was getting rid of her chickens so she just gave them to us. They have been a lot of fun and it’s nice to have the fresh eggs and the manure for the garden. I give away a lot of eggs to friends and family. I now have coworkers asking to buy. Getting to the point where I can’t keep up with demand so I would like to add a few to my flock. Two of the original chickens were blue australorp . They are so pretty, friendly, and such good layers. Those are the type I have my heart set on. I lost one of them this summer to the heat. They were about two or three years old when I got them so pretty sure it was just old age and heat. Anyway, the one BA I have left is very maternal. I thought if I could find some fertilized BA eggs it would be good for her to let her hatch them.

Hi, do you currently have chickens or other poultry? Even if you're just considering the possibility, you've come to the right place!
