“I purchased this particular chicken for the L white eggs. But at almost two months old, I almost dont feel its worth it...lol! These two Exchequer chicks have turned my other chicks against me! They sound an alert whenever I come near! They are SO flighty! They were out of the cage within 3 weeks! Flying all over as best they could! And they do NOT like being touched. Or looked at. Or really even talked about. I read the other reviews and saw that the eggs are NOT large and they aren't great layers and, if that turns out to be the case, in the pot they go. Its not MPC fault but I do feel these chicks are not for people who like to pick up their chickens. They are very pretty tho. And they are very healthy. Hopefully they will lay large white eggs.”
The Exchequer Leghorns are known for their lively and talkative personalities as you have found out! They are inquisitive little ones and are normally very friendly flock members. We are sorry to hear that you've had a different experience! This blog article from our Frequently Asked Questions section may be of some help to hopefully assist your little ones in becoming a bit more friendly toward you: My chickens run away whenever they see me. Can I tame them? Of course, if you ever have any questions, please let us know. My Pet Chicken is here to help!

“The communication is TOP NOTCH! You will know every step your babies take! Thank you so much. They all arrived energetic and vocal. I will definitely be purchasing again from this company.”
“We ordered 5 leghorn babies. 4 off the 5 died within the first 48 hours despite proper husbandry. They were very weak on arrival and just couldn't bounce back.”
We were so very sorry to hear of the loss of your little ones and hope that the refund we issued as part of our live arrival guarantee has been viewed on your payment account. Again, we are very sorry for your loss and pray the remaining little ones from your order are doing well. Please reach out to My Pet Chicken any time you have questions or concerns, we are here to help as best as we are able.
