Wyandotte

Pros: Hardy, Great egg layer, friendly
Cons: Can go broody a lot
I have 5 Columbian and 5 Silver Laced Wyandottes and they are proving to be the very nearly perfect chicken to me. The began laying at 19 weeks and have laid an egg consistently every day since. They are by far my best layers. I do have one Columbian that goes broody about every other month so I may just let her hatch out some eggs next time. It has to be frustrating to her to sit and have nothing to show for it.

Pros: Good Layer, Attractive Bird
Cons: Tendency to be aggressive
These are really attractive birds and they reliably lay a white egg each day. However, they (at least mine) have a tendency to become aggressive toward the other hens and the Rooster I had (before I had to get rid of him) was very people aggressive. I understand that this is not uncommon with Mediterranean breeds so I will avoid that group in the future.
