I'm new here. I live in Connecticut, in the Northwest corner. My 9 year old son joined 4H this year, so we are in the process of getting a coop and some chickens! We're looking to start with 3 Bantam Pullets, all hens (no need to start off with neighbor wars!). We would like a Buff Orpington, a Silver or Gold Penciled Rock or Columbian Rock, and a Columbian Wyandotte or Buff Laced Wyandotte. I'm having a heck of a time finding local breeders to get pullets from. I'd prefer them to be show quality since my son will be showing for 4H. Hatcheries are kind of out of the question because they only sell chicks and large minimums. And I'd rather let my son pick the pullet out himself in person.
I sure would appreciate some guidance on that.
Nice to meet you all.
