Ok, I fell asleep reading this thread the other night and didn’t finish until tonight! (fell asleep because I was exhausted, not because of the thread!) So I can’t say there are any breeds I dislike. However, there are a few I would not want. Many of you will think this is insane, but I wouldn’t...
I love my Buff Orp, but what really made me love her more this year is what a WONDERFUL mother she is! This is my first time have a broody raise chicks and she is doing a stellar job! And since she is friendly with me, she has brought her chicks up onto my lap. Melts my heart!
I have two Wyandottes and both are pretty friendly. One is waaay low in the pecking order and seems to come near me for protection, occasionally. The other is my best lap sitter. I heard Wyandottes were mean, but so far, not in my flock..
Interesting. Both my Buckeyes (2-year-old hen and 8-week-old chick) are major talkers and super curious. I wouldn’t call it complaining... they just like to chat. I actually enjoy the greeting and that they talk back to me.
Wow, really? I love their calm, confident temperament. After the recent passing of my alpha, my barred rock stepped in abd the whole flock seems more at peace.
