Lovely Hens

4 years ago
We have four hens that were labeled as Mystic Onyx at our local Tractor Supply. They have red combs and faces but otherwise their feathers are beautiful black with blue, green, and purple undertones. These are the smartest and friendliest hens we have - very intuitive and resourceful and needed no training to learn about the coop and nesting boxes. They come up to visit and ask to be held when they’re feeling social. They are active and seem aloof to other family members that don’t handle them as much, but overall they are my favorite out of all the hens we have because they have such great personalities and intelligence.

Post Office Delay

5 years ago
Shipping delay but good customer service. The post office didn’t transport them and left them in a warehouse overnight and they all died. I called TSC right away and they replaced them, still awful for the chickens

Shipping was horrendous!

4 days ago
I ordered the 10 CT of chicks, they shipped on Wednesday and we're supposed to get here Friday, then got delayed to Saturday. I picked them up Saturday morning and 7 out of the 10 were dead and appeared to have been trampled on. The box is way too small for them with the padding in there! I opted for a refund and just went and bought chicks from a different feed store!

Cute babies

4 months ago
All 10 arrived healthy. My babies are now 15 week. They a beautiful birds. They are not a breed that all look the same which I enjoy. Out of 10 pullets we ended up with 2 roosters which sucks but we will make do. We also have 2 with poofs on their heads. I didnt want birds to begin with but my brother in law order them anyways. They sure have grown on me though.

Yes, I recommend this product.
