Hello, I\'m new to chickens. Our White Roc wandered up to the property about a year ago. She stayed, so we built her a little roost in the old barn, bought her a bag of laying mash (How long does it take one hen to eat a 50-lb bag of feed? Answer: She can\'t before it goes sour!), and she has been giving us HUGE brown eggs, 2 or 3 a week. So I have no background in chickens, but my wife knows a little.
I am looking to buy three different color pullets. I do not breed or show, I just want three more hens to help our White Roc eat bugs and such. Oh, and some blue eggs would be neat, too! Why three different colors? So we can tell them apart, and give them all names! Yes, all our animals are pets, so I can\'t raise goats or cows. Ever since \"Bambi\" was produced, my wife won\'t let me say \"Venison\"! So imagine what would happen if we had some brown-eyed calves in the pasture - tofu, here I come!
Anyway, will anyone be bringing some cull pullets to the Indianapolis show? I could pick them up during the show. Thanks, Rich.
