The Gingernut Ranger Chicken is a very friendly breed. They are great layers, we had a really bad winter this year and our chickens laid everyday. We had over 50 inches of snow in less than 2 weeks, they were completely covered in snow in their eglu, and they still laid eggs everyday. The weather was some nights 12 below zero and the eglu kept them warm. Would make future purchases of the Gingernut Rangers.
