I've been looking up different breeds online and notice they tell you if the breed tolerates cold, but not heat. I live in the desert southwest. We have 100+ degree days for several months out of the year. I am wondering if there are breeds that handle the heat better than others.
I am new to raising chickens. I got mine as chicks at a local feed store last year. They didn't have them labeled as any specific breed. I didn't even know what gender they were. I am amazed at how all of you know exactly what you have! Are you all ordering from a catalog or website??
My name is Angel from Arizona. My husband and I picked up seven chicks at the feed store last year at Easter time. I don't know what breeds they are. We started with two blacks, two yellow and three brownish red ones. They all turned out to be hens. Unfortunately we've lost three to dog...
