Hi Everyone,
We are brand spankin' new to chicken ownership! We recently got 9 3 week old Chanteclers. We'd love to add to our flock with just a few ready to lay hens. Not particular on breed as long as they are reasonably social and well mannered. We're in Renfrew County...any leads?

Good day and welcome eh! RTL may not coexist easily with your young birds (or you have them in sight of each other but separated by wire).
I don't have any for sale.

Hello and welcome! We are fairly new to chickens, too. We will have had ours for a year this June and July. So from my limited experience, I can say that I love the Black Sex-Links that we got as pullets for laying. They are small but lay beautiful large eggs. Also, they were easy to pick up because they would get into a submissive posture, which is good when you want to check their head, feathers or feet for good health.
