I can tell you that you will be happy with the black australorps they are good looking, good egg layers, and good temperment It will be hard waiting but well worth it

Wow, that is quite an order for a first timer!

*Good luck, welcome.

hmmmm, It's an odd number you should get more.

WoW and I was nervous as a 1st timer with 13!! Good luck to ya!!!

 

[~*Sweet Cheeks*~]

WOW!!! That's what I'm thinking too. That's a lot for the first time.

I hope you've read lots and lots and are well prepared with a HUGE brooder or two because they grow so fast.

I was too chicken to order. Didn't want anything to go wrong with the little darlings in shipment. I was lucky the local feed store ordered the variety I wanted. They got to see the DOA - not me.

Good luck with your big bunch of cuteness.

I have found that it doesn't matter how many you get - you are going to want more.
