My only roo is a golden silkie. For hens I have a Buff Orphington, Blue Plymouth Tint, Dark Brahma, Golden Sexlink, and Australorp. Is there anyway of knowing how much eggs we would get from potential chicks? Would egg production be more similar to the hens or the silkie?
Is there a book recommendation for someone who is trying to raise their chickens as natural and organic as possible? I'm not going to get certified just doing eggs myself.
