What breed? Was I sold the wrong chick?!

True of many 'store employees'.



We can hope.

I agree, we can. Only hope

Sorry about that though, I've heard TSC to be pretty bad about this. If you have a C-A-L in your area I'd highly recommend them, just based off ours down here.

I like CAL too, and I think IFA it's my favorite, at least here.

Ooh, I never heard of IFA, tell me more!
We either have TSC or CAL for chicks, and a bunch of Mom and Pop agricultural stores, mainly for irrigation and seed though.

I don't know what else to say. It's a great store and has great employees and products (at least here)! You can search it up. It stands for International Farmers Association.

Thank you! Im new to this whole chickens thing! I totally get it my husband thinks I've lost my mind. I originally wanted 6 birds, I'm up to 14. Pretty sure my first 6 are all male >.<

When YOU, think you are going crazy, then you have graduated to being a true chicken keeper!!

You will definately enjoy what you ended up with, as mentioned, all great breeds and great layers. I love my Sussex!

Would these be Barred Rock's then? I got them from TSC as well. I was hoping they were Easter Eggers.

Not barred rocks

Hampshire, barred rock and ameraucanas are also friendly. Great pets with benefits!

My ameraucana hen is going bonkers today, she wants out to free range, but I can't let her.
She's pretty upset about it too!
She probably laid an egg out there somewhere, while freed early this morning. I like keeping happy hens, but this is ridiculous! She stays in now with all the other hens or else!
