    It was great, but just bad luck.

    My buff orpington bantam chicks that I ordered from Cackle Hatchery last year were all amazing. The only problem was that, due to the fact that they cannot be sexed, I went through a lot of stress to raise my 5 roosters and one hen, just to give away the roosters, find a roommate for my lonely hen, and then not be able to breed them this year because that only hen died to a hawk.
    When buying these, consider that they are not sexed and also consider where you can sell or give away any that you don’t want ahead of time. Other than that, I hope to buy again this year and give it another shot!! Amazingly friendly and productive birds that easily become your best friend.
