I have Red Pyle OEGBs, not the best pictures I have of them but its the handiest. They are Tractor Supply quality. The Hens go broody way too often and end up getting their chicks killed some how. 4 of them will go broody at once, and together hatch out 3 chicks as one hatches out 3 and the rest get off their eggs and tend to the chicks already hatched. Other than their broody issue and poor mothering skills, I like them. They lay well and eat so little forage so well and break down straw/Leaves so fine that it composts faster and better.
