What breeds are you going to be keeping?

I thought these sounded good for novices, I hope.
Barred Plymouth Rock
Ameraucana
Buff Orpington
Black Australorp
and high on my wish list, Blue Laced Wyandotte http://www.chickenhillpoultry....

Well my list changed, LOL, I just reserved a Blue Orpington instead of the Buff



and a Speckled Sussex.


Still getting a Blue Laced Wyandotte


and then have to decide on the last two from my list, it will depend what's available. Several local hatcheries around here to pick from.

Those are all beautiful!

We love the Ameracaunas and usually try to keep a number of them in the flock. They are tremendous egg layers with a good feed to egg ratio.

That is the one of the ones we had decided on definitely trying to get. Blue/green eggs a bonus!
