Thanks for all of the helpful info so far.
So we should only have two different breeds together at the same time? Does this apply only if you get them at laying age? And why?
If you get baby chicks can you get more that two breeds at one time?
Thank You!

Hello,
My fiance and I are as new as can be when it comes to owning chickens.
We'd like to have a few hens to raise for the purpose of having lovely fresh eggs... and to have fun with as pets.
We think we'd like to buy chickens that are close to laying age (20 weeks?) rather than day old baby...
