I have some 2 year old New Hampshire hens that I got at Tractor Supply as chicks, probably cane from Hoovers Hatchery.
They have been great birds, good disposition and good solid layers of large eggs.
I’ve got some ordered from Murray McMurray, and hoping they will be as good.
I’ve usually ordered mainly white leghorns from them, and have been well satisfied.
I have never had Rhode Island Reds and am thinking of adding some of those. Do they lay as large of an egg as New Hampshires? Is the egg color a little darker than NHs?
Do RIR lay many more eggs than hatchery NH?
