    The only reason why I'm guessing ee is because we order from Mcmurray and the offer 1 free rare chicken with every order and it seems to always be an ee roo.

    And Mike I don't know anyone with alpaca. Other than their fur do they serve any other purpose besides cool pet?

    Nah i think its llamas that spit at you. Llamas are kinda lame though. Alpacas are sweet, and yea i think their fur is worth money?

    Horses suck and theyre stupid. Alpacas are awesome and awesome. Same with buffalo. Buffalo are awesome.

    Alpaca fur is soooooooooo soft! And sells for bank. I went to an alpaca fur only store once and they had blankets going for thousands. A scarf was like $200. But it's like nothing I've ever felt before.....I wish there was a lovey drooly daydream icon lol

    I do believe Sussex are rare, according to what I was reading about them before we got ours. They were hard to find too, places kept running out of them. Hubby actually left work and ran on his lunch break to go get ours, they wouldn't hold them for us.

    Thanks, I love them. They are a really deep rich almost what I would call mahogany red, very pretty. Make sure you update this thread when you figure out what your bonus chick is!

    My grandma has always been a fan of Rhode island reds. That's all she ever gets for her laying hens.

    IMO, RIR's are nasty little pecky hens. Any I have met anyhow. And we once had a sexlink that was part RIR, and it was a butt head.
