In my experience Yokohama are wonderful birds. They are fairly calm and easy to handle when they need to be, but can be spazzy at times. They are beautiful and readily produce the long, flowing tails that are characteristic of the breed.
They are reliable layers, but lay eggs that are on the smaller side and are more traditional and natural shaped. They breed readily and readily set on their eggs.
They are nice to have around the farm, but rain easily soils their feathers. They do quite well in colder weather and their small combs make for less of a chance of frost bite.
I love this breed and would recommend them to anyone who wants to add a bit of variety to their flock.
