True... it's hot here but nothing like AZ. Let me know in the fall if you want to do a swap. I only have two laying hens right now, so the most I can ship out is 6... How do your girls mind the heat?
I've also started removing the roosters because of the bare backs of my girls. They seem to have a few special hens that they prefer.
They do okay in the heat, no better or worse than my other breeds as far as I can tell. I have a mister system I turn on when it gets really hot and that helps a good deal. Yes, I removed my roosters for the summer because of the bare backs. Where did your stock originate from?
