“I will say these were the healthiest chicks I have every had shipped to me in Mississippi. All chicks are thriving are growing beautifully. I will certainly recommend My Pet Chicken to my fellow chicken friends.”
“These girls are feisty but very friendly. I put food in my hand and they jump on my hard to eat it. They are soo eager to get my attention. I pass the brooder and the baby chicks exchequer leghorns tap the glass. I love them. Super adorable!!”
“I love everything about my experience with My Pet Chicken.
I got 2 Exchequer Leghorns and W. Crested Polish bantam.
They were happy and very friendly, they were sweet personalities that loved being held, they would fly onto my shoulder sit on my legs when I sat down. When they started laying I thought they might get less friendly, they didn’t they stayed friendly and they are the first to run and want attention.”
We’re so happy to hear that your experience with My Pet Chicken was everything you hoped for! It sounds like your Exchequer Leghorns and White Crested Polish Bantam have truly become feathered best friends. We love that they’re so affectionate and still seek out attention even after they started laying. It sounds like they are quite the sweet and social little flock!
Thank you for sharing your experience, and thank you for supporting small business with My Pet Chicken!
“I bought my first Exch. Leghorn last summer from MPC. She has been my best laying hen for the past two months, even slightly outperforming some of my high production breeds like my Red Star. She is affable and clever, and not flighty at all, as is their reputation. If I had a "con," it's that her eggs are quite small... not much bigger than a bantam's. I don't know if that's characteristic for the breed or just happens to be the individual I happened to get.
Definitely a great backyard chicken, great egg-layer; I'll buy another one in the future.”
Thank you for sharing your experience with your Exchequer Leghorn! It’s great to hear she’s such a reliable layer and even outperforms some of your high-production breeds. Their intelligence and friendly nature can definitely be a pleasant surprise! Leg size may sometimes vary between individuals, but she may size up as she matures. We're so glad she’s been a great addition to your flock, and we’d love to help you add another in the future!
