Maybe one of you can help....I live on a lake in Northern Wisconsin...so DNR says..."no livestock". I think I can have two "pet" chickens if I keep them either in a "tractor pen" or on tethers with halters. The breed I would like is Gold Laced Wyandottes because of their Wisconsin heritage....and their hardiness for cold temps. I will keep them inside during these winters though...I have a greengrowing area (see photo) where I grow veggies all winter and it would be a perfect place for them to roost.

Now...the problem is that the places I've found that breed these chickens require a purchase minimum of 15! I've been trying to find neighbors to share the order, but with minimal luck. Do any of you know of a place where I could order a smaller quantity? I think I could find homes for 4 others...thanks for any help...lynnann
