10 Chicken Breeds For Families

This is really helpful because I might get some chicks after winter
I love learning interisting facts about different animals/breeds, so this was an amazing article!
I like how it is straight to the point with every bird. Very helpful thank you for this post. I give it 5 stars because even though it's more of an opinion it is still insightful. Yes birds attitudes will very. But so do peoples and dogs.... just because one pitbull has a problem do all of them? And yes I used pitbull because it is a well know topic to make my point lol. All I'm saying is this article was helpful for me ( going in understanding attitudes will very bird to bird)

The article is great, but I wouldn’t put EEs on the list. They are only friendly until they 3 months old. After that they’d want nothing to do with me (other than food) and run and fight me when I’m holding them. I’d swap out their position with polish. My little polish hen still follows me everywhere. Other than that, I love all the info with all of the breeds you put up.

This article was well written but is more opinion than fact. Everyone’s experience is generally different with breeds.

View attachment 1486351 i really appreciate the format of this article. The simplicity is definitely something I would write in a journal. My only nag would be that it may not be wholly accurate. I bought a Blue Australorp from a hatchery here in Texas this summer! She has been the toughest of all my flock to warm up to me.
Very vague, plain break down of some easily kept breeds of chickens. However, this 'review' really lacks any in-depth information and the little that is provided isn't necessarily accurate. For example, Austrolorps in the United States are available in more than just the black coloration...there are actually breeders believe it or not. They are also renowned for being very standoffish and not overly accepting of human interaction in a close proximity.
Great article, except Cochins are not supposed to have long tails like the bird pictured.
Only thing I disagree with is Wyandottes, I’ve had two and they are the most miserable hens I’ve known ....

The rest is great information , thanks you for this I hope it helps others
