We have had Jersey's before. Also have had Orpingtons and Faverolles. Outside of the Barred Rocks we have never had a problem with any of the breeds. The Rocks we got are mean and aggressive.
We just ordered 12 Black and 12 White Jersey Giants. They are suppose to arrive the Week of July 7th. We have Welsummers and Barred Rocks currently. I am hoping to replace the Barred Rocks with the JGs. I love the Welsummers and will get more in the future.
