As I write this my birds have been growing fast.
They are about 11 weeks old, the Black Stars (as well as the Red Stars)are hardy birds, good natured, and calm, they are good foragers and friendly.
An attractive, excellant pick for utility as a backyard chicken.

Bought 50 Red and Black Stars from your special last year. These are without a doubt the best layers I have ever had. They are also the best chickens I have ever raised. They are easy-going and gentle.

I have two Black Stars, and they are the best. They started laying eggs on August 4,2003 and now we get one egg from each every day. I am sure you will like these brids, not only are they good egg layers but they are very friendly!

We ordered a few Black Stars to top off our order of chicks. Boy were we surprised when they started to mature into really pretty hens. My son decided to take a trio to fair for the production class and won 3rd place with this 12 week old chicks! They are the nicest layers we have, big clean brown eggs. We love them and have ordered more this year. Thanks! Cheryl in MI.

We ordered our Black Stars at the end of March and were waiting to see how they would make the trip from the hatchery to the Smoky Mountains. When they came, we promptly opened the box to check for casualties. There were none, and to our delight, you sent extras along with our bonus Polish Crested who became Billy Ray. The Black Stars are a delight. They have grown so quickly and absolutely no problems. They are extremely friendly and do not frighten easily. We have taken delight in watching them grown and can't wait until the eggs start coming. McMurray's is wonderful to do business with.

We ordered 25 Black Stars this year and they have been laying since they were 5 months old. We are now getting aound 18-24 eggs a day and at 7 months old that is great.We really enjoy them as they are very friendly and love to get extra treats!! Any one that likes big brown eggs and good layers need Black Stars! Thanks!!

Mcmurray hatchery has done a great job with all our birds! The black stars are great birds, our 2 though are the curious, always getting into trouble, yet they come when called and they are the bossiest. My red stars on the other hand love to stand on my shoulder and are the sweetest things. My black stars were curious, yet never aggressive to humans. I suggest this breed 100 percent.

Hello! I just wanted to take the time to comment on the Black Star. I have one who is now two years old named Beamer. I grew up with chickens as pets, but she is truly unique! She follows me everywhere, comes when I call her and even sits on my lap. I would recommend this breed to anyone interested in raising a great pet. She's also a terrific egg-layer, which is a plus!Katie GlassmoyerGreenville, SC

Your Red and Black Stars are the best choices I could have made. They have proven to be every bit the "egg machines" you say. Folks who buy the eggs are more than satisfied with size and taste. One neighbor purchased some "store" eggs when I was away on vacation and said "they tasted lousy." "I could use a couple dozen of those good eggs." Nuff said!!Ms. Sandy ClarkChester, NH
