thanks so much but I have one more question should you buy more than one of them like two together or is it fine to just have one alone with other breeds

Chickens are very gregarious, they thrive in the company of other chickens. Its always best to get at least a trio, so if something happens to one if them there is still at least a pair.

As long as you have at least 2 chickens together, they will be happy and enjoy each others company.

Same temperament more than breed.

These are beautiful birds...To the point that I'm interested, what can you tell me about the breed?

I am new to this breed as well, I stumbled across them when I was researching breeds this spring and thought they were beautiful. My feed store just happened to have some left the day I picked up my chicks so needless to say I couldn't resist. From what I've read they are a smaller chicken, lay white eggs, and are good foragers. They seem to have mixed reviews when it comes to temperment so I'm trying to handle them regularly.
