Re: New chickens


We are getting some Black Rocks, we've had lots of different types of the hybrid / good layers but never Black Rocks. And we are getting some Calder Rangers, I just love these, but again haven't ever had them. I'm excited.

Re: New chickens


I did not realise just how tame they can become, this 4 run in the house when the dog is called to get some of his food, they are nuts!!

Re: New chickens


Congratulations! Will they be adults and laying or will you have to wait for them to mature first?

Re: New chickens


Hi Smudgley! I have had Black Rocks before. They were beautiful girls but really quite aggressive. Also had some Isobrowns (Isaac Browns?) and the Mrs Blacks terrorised them so we had to keep them separately. If you are getting yours all together and POL they may get on better. I do hope so. LOVE your flag idea. Look forward to the pics.
