Not so concerned with kid friendly, my youngest is 9, but I do like the colored eggs. Are the leg horns also good for meat? I was told the hens will not lay eggs if you don't have a rooster also-is this true?
I am getting ready to get chicks or hens already laying and was wondering what the best producers are. I have 4 kids and we go through a lot of groceries! Also how old are hens when they start laying?
