    Planting some plants for your chickens

    Funny my chickens just LOVE marigolds! They also love the leaves from my big old apricot tree.

    what breed

    Could be a number of breeds. Is it a bantam? It looks smaller than the others. Are there feathers on it's feet or is it "clean legged" What color are it's legs? Yellow, grey, pink?

    I'm thinking the top one or two is your Golden Laced Wyandottes you would definitely see some golden brown.
