    Breed suggestions for docile roosters?

    I agree with the Wyandotte’s. The worst ones I had were a Dominique and a Rhode Island Red. Mean boys!

    What Breed of Chickens Do You Have?

    They are both interesting, fun birds! I especially love the Anconas, I had one before that was the best layer EVAH! She was friendly yet wild as a March hare, went over the fence every day and traipsed around the five acres I live on. I miss Gina so much!

    What do you do with cockerels that you can’t keep?

    Check your local feed stores. Some of them will take roos. We have one near us whom, for three dollars, will take your roo, put him in a cage and people can come in and take them. The turnover is very fast.

    If you could only keep 3-5 chickens

    my faves are Speckled Sussex and the Ancona. The Ancona is a funny bird, be prepared, they are a handful! But the best layer I’ve ever had.

    If you could add two chickens to your backyard flock what would they be?

    I love my Ancona. She lays more eggs than any of the other girls, is independent, and is the most entertaining chicken I've ever seen as well as being striking in appearance!
