Pros: Easily handled, friendly, can't fly very high
Cons: Comb is delicate and gets injured easily, toes turn very easily as chicks, eat a lot
My NHR loves food! I never see her without a full crop (except in the morning, and then she goes up to me and begs for food! Lol!). She lets me pick her up and pet her and she follows me around for treats. Today, she finished her mash and used my shoe to wipe her beak off. :rolleyes:

Unlike my other hens, she's a lot heavier and can't fly so far and high. Thus i don't have to chase her around if she flew over my five foot fence. But even if she did fly over it, it wouldn't be hard to catch her, because she lets you just scoop her up and carry her on her back (Granted, she prefers to be carried right side up, but she lets you carry her upside down.)

She's a real sweetie and a fantastic breed! :love
Pros: Exellent layers, like to be around people, makes funny noises
Cons: Don't like being petted/picked up, hesitant to try new foods and treats (not really a con, but whatever :P)
My RIR isn't aggressive at all. She is actually at the very bottom of the pecking order. Because of this, she does fly pretty high up to escape the other birds. She follows me around and talks to me. I love watching her chase butterflies and moths when I let my flock out to free range. I get a pretty light brown egg every day.
