“I selected three Blue Andalusians five years ago in my second batch of original hens. They are very friendly hens that are curious about everything I do. Doris is black and Chicken Wing is blue. Drumstick was blue as well, but sadly, the victim of predation while free ranging. Doris comes in the coop and talks to me during the daily poo removal. She hops up on the roost pole in my face to make sure I see her, eats out of my hand and sits on my chair arm while I read in the summer. My hens are not super pet like, but she is pretty close. I recommend them for an interesting addition to your flock. Customer Service at MPC is always exceptional too with fast shipping and a .”
“I ordered just three chicks, being a backyard chicken hobbyist and not a serious breeder or egg vendor (I have five adult hens they will join later). It's absolutely awesome that I can order so few, in a wide range of breeds that are impossible to find locally or at my farm store (and it was nearly impossible to choose, but I finally decided on friendlier breeds because my chickens are pets, as much as I appreciate their eggs)! Plus, I was able to order by sex so that I get the hens I want and don't get the roos I don't! In addition to my BBS Andalusion (I'm praying she comes out with "splash" plumage), I also ordered a Lavender Orphington and White Cochin (oh, such cute feathered legs! It may change, but I'm currently calling her "Chaps" because of her feathered thighs!). I was particularly impressed with the fact that I ordered my little peepers late evening on October 29, and they shipped October 30 and arrived October 31! You guys are on the ball! Everyone arrived chirping and sprite, and easily took to a sip of water and offered crumbles. They were securely packaged in a heavy-duty cardboard live animal box, safely nestled in dense straw-like nesting material. I'm SO in love! Thank you, My Pet Chicken! You have a customer for life!”
“My chicks arrived the very next day, chirping and healthy. Ordering was easy, and when I changed one chick from one breed to another, they went out of their way to make this possible. I paid extra for the vaccination and am glad I did. They are too wonderful to lose! They arrived in a warm package with an ingenious "heat pack." So well done. And now, a few weeks old, they are healthy, happy, beautiful chicks - Rhode Island Red, Cuckoo Maran, Speckled Sussex and Black Australorp. I had a broody Black Australorp hen (wonderful breed!) and she adopted these chicks on the second day. It is beautiful to watch her take care of them, as they chatter with glee across the lawn. I am so grateful to My Pet Chicken for making it possible to get small numbers, a variety of breeds, and available over a wide choice of weeks, making it possible to get chicks when we suffer a loss, when a hen goes broody, etc. I also really appreciated the many informational things on the website, the details about each breed, details of care, etc. We are very pleased with our four little chicks, and the whole process of purchasing through MyPetChicken.”
