Quote: Like I said earlier, I think you should go with the Barred Rocks. I read somewhere that sexlinks lay really good to begin with, but then they burn out faster than purebreeds. So maybe you can try both, but I think you should definitely get some Barred Rock, you can't go wrong with them!!

There are lots of other great brown egg layers like Orpingtons, Sexlinks, and several others, but my personal favorite is Barred Rocks. They are great layers of large brown eggs even in the hot summer, they are the most docile of any breed I have ever had, and sometimes they will go broody for you.
