“Wow!! This breed is a must-have!! We ordered two of these chicks and they were the absolute friendliest chicks right from day one. They are now almost 7 months old and are still the most curious and friendly hens in our flock. They are top of the totem pole and lay the most beautiful blue eggs you’ve ever seen!! If you want a friendly bird with a big personality who will give you pretty blue eggs-these are the perfect addition! They are talkers but not as noisy as our blue fauvacana lol! I can’t wait to add more of these chickens to our flock!”
That sounds like such a wonderful experience with your chickens! It seems like you've found a fantastic breed for your flock—friendly, curious, and productive. It is always a joy to hear how the little ones are doing and that we have been able to be a positive part of your flock keeping journey!.
Shhh - we won't tell the others that you have a favorite :-) These birds are gorgeous and are just wonderful to add to a backyard flock! Thank you for sharing your review and let us know if we can ever be of any assistance. We are happy to help our fellow flock keepers!
“Ordered 4 chicks, they arrived the next day in perfect condition. They are beautiful and here we are at week 3 they're still perfect. Can't wait for blue eggs. Thank you My Pet Chicken.”
You are so very welcome and we are thankful to have been a part in bringing this member of your flock to your backyard! Please let us know any time if you have any questions or concerns. My Pet Chicken is happy to help!
“Very happy with my two bountiful blues, Spot and Dot. Sadly lost the third on day 5. The other two are super hardy. One is more on the top of pecking order and the other lower down has been one of the friendliest. She likes to be pet and hop on my shoulder and lap. They both lay the prettiest aqua blue eggs, so super lucky there. They seem to be doing well in this very hot summer so far. They started laying around 20 weeks old, which I thought was early compared to some of my older hens.”
We are so sorry to read about the loss of your third baby! It is so sad when we lose them and you have our sincere sympathy for her. Thankfully, Spot and Dot sound like they are doing great and living up their this breed's reputation of being super friendly and layers of those beautiful blue-hued eggs! Please let us know if you ever have any questions or concerns about your girls or their flock care needs, we are happy to do our best to help!
“I ordered 4 Bountiful Blue Egg Layers and 4 Cuckoo Bluebars born March 4, 2024. On 7/18/24 we received our first egg! I am honestly not sure which breed laid the egg at only 19.5 weeks, but it's a beautiful blue egg. The Bountiful Blue Egg Layers are my favorite chickens. All are super friendly. Customer service at My Pet Chicken has been good too. Thank you!”
“My blues are very sweet, clever and the fastest of all my birds. They’re much more lightweight than my other hens and lay gorgeous eggs. They do tend to go broody more often than anyone else. They’re a year old now and healthy.”
We are so happy to hear your girls are doing so great and are living their best lives :-) The Bountiful Blues do have a tendancy to go broody so we recommend, even on their breed page, if a flock keeper would rather not have to deal with a moody/broody hen, they may want to choose a Cream Legbar instead :-) Please let us know if we can help you with anything whether it be questions or supplies for your flock, we are happy to help!
“Dorothy (or Dottie as we call her) arrived healthy, and was so much bigger than the other chicks she came with that I had to put her with our group that was already a week old! Since then she’s been a joy. I was worried at first that her skittishness would stay, but she’s now 11 weeks and loves hanging out with us. She’s so sweet and inquisitive, and I’m so excited to see what her eggs look like. Will report back then! If I could figure out how to add a photo I would, she’s beautiful and so big already!”
Thank you for taking the time to review our little Bountiful Blue babies! We are so happy to hear Dottie is thriving and bringing you joy! My Pet Chicken hopes to help you with your flock needs in the future!
