Hello,
First time chicken owners (hens for eggs to start) and thinking a head. We have a trip planned mid May so we were thinking to wait to get our chickens for when we get back (Mid May). This also gives us time to build a really decent coop and run.
Right now we are liking the black Australorp.
Questions: Being so far out, is there a time we should order way ahead of our wanted delivery?
We possibly could go pick them up (road trip lol) if getting them in the mail is a risk?
Also, do many just order them as babies or as pullets.
Thank you
Stella
