Hello,
I am new here, just joined a few minutes ago, and I have a flock of 11 pet chickens, we have had chickens for about 6 or 7 years now, and we love having them as pets, we also keep them for their eggs, but mainly as pets.
They have a very large, nice coop, and are out free range every day, to forage for bugs, etc, and they are very spoiled, hehe, my sister and I put them up every night before dusk.
We have 2 Barred Rock Hens, 1 americana hen, golden seabright hen, golden seabright/jap. bantam cross, hen and rooster, and 5 regular bantams 2 of which are roosters. The hens are very good layers, but we are looking to buy more young hens from our local feed store this coming spring, what breed is the best layer??
Thanks, Victoria
