Brown Egg Layer

Amazing!All the chicks I received were gorgeous and doing well. It's been fun trying to identify which breed they all are.

We were sent featherless chickensOur family was excited to receive our brown layer assortment. That excitement quickly dissipated when we saw we were sent a large number of naked neck chickens. (Exactly what it sounds like - chickens with no feathers on the neck and breast) Never in a million years would we have selected such horribly ugly birds for our backyard flock. Additionally these chickens are ok layers and great brooders. We don't need our chickens to brood. We assumed that we would, at the very least, be sent chickens that yielded a higher number of eggs. We also live in a cold weather climate. For that reason alone we wouldn't have selected featherless chickens.
Next time we're going back to tractor supply where we know exactly what we're getting. This was a real disappointment.
