“My bountiful blue (aka Snow White) is one of our favorite girls in the flock. She is only about 2 months old now, but she is by a landslide our most friendly girl! Absolutely loves to be held & petted. All 4 of my kids can hold her & she falls asleep in their arms with in minutes. She gets along with all breeds & is just so perfect & beautiful. Plus she’s quiet as a mouse. I’ve never heard any noise from her. We can’t wait until she starts laying eggs. Thank you MPC!”
Oh my goodness! Snow White sounds like an absolute dream chicken -fairest, fairest of them all!! We’re so touched to hear how gentle and affectionate she is with your whole family. It’s extra special when a hen bonds so closely with her humans and gets along beautifully with the rest of the flock. It won't be too long before she is gifting you with those lovely blue eggs!
Thank you for choosing MPC and for giving Snow White such a loving home. We’re honored to be part of your chicken-keeping journey and we hope her future eggs are just as delightful as she is!
“I never heard of a bountiful blue. So I bought 1 in my batch just because they looked fancy. I dont know if I just got lucky or if they are all like this, but my little chickie is the most friendly chick I have ever raised. She is like a dog. I did absolutely nothing to make her this way. She was friendly from day 1. I might have to order more because I'm so obsessed.”
Thank you so much for sharing your experience with your Bountiful Blue! We're so glad to hear how friendly and companionable she is right from the start. They certainly have a special charm that can make anyone fall in love and those eggs are going to be so beautiful!
It sounds like you’ve found a new favorite in your flock, and we’d love to supply you with more of these delightful chicks whenever you decide to expand! Enjoy your time with her, and happy chicken raising!
“Our first 2 bountiful blue hens we ordered both ended up being roosters. The next 2 we ordered were very sweet, one laid pink eggs that we loved and one laid blue. The one that laid pink eggs stopped eating around 10 months old, quickly declined, and in spite of our best efforts, died shortly thereafter. Our last remaining hen is a bold, friendly, super layer.”
Hana, thank you for the 4 Star Review of the Bountiful Blue! We’re sorry to hear about the unexpected roosters; sexing is as much an art as science and while sexing is about 90% accurate, our sexing guarantee does cover those rare surprises as you know. Bountiful Blues do lay the blue egg 15 out of 16 times, but for 1/16th of the birds, they will lay a different color due to the genes.
We're glad your remaining girl is thriving and full of personality! We're here if you ever need flock support.
“I have very little chicken experience. When they grow up, my new babies will be added to a flock of 7 one-year old hens including orpingtons, jersey giants and amberlinks. The new babies are definitely more skittish, scared and easily paniced than the previous batch of admitedly extremely docile breeds. I'm concerned about that, but I trust that the babies will fit in as expected. Also, I expected polka dots would identify their breed. Unfortunately the other breed I ordered with these had polka dots too. Well... I purchased 5 chicks. Only 2 are bountiful blue egg layers and I have 4 with polka dots! So I don't know who is who and won't until they grow a bit. Looking for those puffy Americauna cheeks! But they are so small right now, everychick appears to have puffy cheeks!”
Thank you for your review! We’re so glad to hear that both breeds of chicks arrived in excellent shape and have been thriving these past few weeks. It’s always great to know they’re settling in well and growing strong. Wishing you continued success with your flock!
