    What Breed(s) Do You Wish You Had?

    I have so many on my wish list. I really want hedemoras and vorwerks. I also lust after partridge cochin, Penedesenca (though my climate might be too cold for them), chantecler, buckeye, ameraucana, barnevelder, faverolle, and of course svart höna.

    Chick Grit?

    Coconut Flour?

    Seems like it would be good to feed as like a treat, but I'm definitely not an expert. I haven't come across it mentioned anywhere.
