For me it would be the Anconas.....nice white eggs....but that's about it CRAZY-and then some!

and that's all they did!
 
BCW polish. Couldn't see worth a darn and did poorly as a "farm bird". They are more pet style lawn ornaments. At least the silkies have more spunk and can run and hide when danger calls.
 
Mottled Houdan....Hate 'em, hate 'em, hate 'em!!! I just wish I could get up the nerve to hate him to the point of culling....*sigh*....alas, I cannot be that mean....he's part of my original 20 birds.....
 
Mine would have to be seabrights. All the roosters were mean and very aggressive and no matter what I gave them, their egg shells were always thin and most cracked very easily. I love the silver & golds but, my luck with them was not good.
 
I would never have any feather footed breeds again. Gather dirt to easy....and chickens like dirt.

Silver-spangled Hamburg. I like her but her eggs are small and she's much flightier than the rest of my flock.
