Living in Minnesota, we needed hardy chickens. These Wyandottes handle freezing temps like pros! Their egg production never slowed, and the website’s winter care tips were spot-on. Thanks for making our first poultry venture a success!

The Wyandottes we ordered (buff-colored) arrived in perfect health. Their personalities are as vibrant as their feathers! The site’s FAQ section answered all our questions about coop setup. 10/10 would buy again!
