40 Bird Flock for Brown Eggs, What Breeds for Visual Variety?

[Marlinchaser]

Cuckoo Marans or Welsomers to get really dark eggs, and nice looking birds too.

Buckeyes, and light dark and buff brahmas

Any color of Orphington

Barred rocks or Dominiques for the stripped look

just get couple of each type or if you would like a nice surprise order Brown Egg Layer assortment from Meyer, or any other hatchery I think they all offer one. Half the fun is figureing out what you got.

O yes, indeedy, SLW too!

My SLW girls are reliable, and are laying straight through winter, along with the Orpy girls.

Our 1 Rooster is a SLW, and, what can I say, he is gorgeous. And really watches out for his girls.
