What did you do with your flock today?

I love them!!! I’ve never seen chicks like that.

They're amazing. I highly recommend them.

What is the personality like? How are they for egg production? And I have to agree with everyone else, those chicks and adults are beautiful!

They're awesome in every way. They are super friendly, curious, and tough. They even let little kids manhandle them.
They lay well, but aren't crazy production birds, really. Mine started laying at around 4-5 months in the middle of winter.
They're smart. They get out of my fencing easily, but they always remember how to get back in, and are excellent foragers. I really can't say enough good things about them. To me, they are the perfect chicken.

The chickens aren’t happy to not be in the rafters. Tonight Beigie tried to sleep on my back/shoulder.

I sat in the shade while enjoying a good book, a glass of sun tea and the company of my younger chooks. A day well spent if you ask me!

Watch that those bands on legs do not get tight surgery to remove them is not fun
