So I've recently decided to take another dip in the poultry pool and get serious about chickens (and maybe one day ducks or pigeons).
I just need to pick a breed or two to focus on.
So far, I've loved the Barred Rocks for their gentle, curious nature and the Ameracaunas for their egg color. And we also have a pair of Buff Orpingtons that I am partial to for the laidback nature of the rooster.
So, I would like something dual purpose so that I can focus on show, meat, and eggs.
I would also like a breed that is docile with non aggressive roosters. Broody would also be nice.
Also, a breed that can come in multiple colors would be nice because I love genetics, but isn't necessary.
Thanks for any suggestions!
