After a dog killed all but one of my chickens, someone on Freecycle who was getting ready to move gave me all her chickens (12 hens and 3 roos). Gave 2 roos and 2 hens to neighbor as he'd lost all his chickens to dogs, too. Kept one roo and 7 hens. These are Rhode Island Reds and (according to the lady) just started laying this spring, however, since getting them here I haven't gotten any eggs.
They're just now starting to get brave enough to come out of the coop and roam around the yard, but don't know how long it's going to take to start getting eggs.
