Nice coop are they barred rocks and auracanas?

Thanks for the tip! Sounds like a nice flock! I am more curious about 1 on 1 since I'll only have 2. I am not opposed to keeping 2 BRs, but variety would be nice. 

I love, love, love my Partridge Rock. They're rare, but if you can find one, she'll get along great with the BR (same breed and all that). The other breeds in my flock are doing well together, too: Sussex, Easter Egger, and Welsummer. In the heat, I would look at an Australorp, too. Great heat hardiness, and similar temperament to the Rocks.

This is Benny, My 1 1/2 week old Barred Rock hen. Tail feathers coming in and she walks the tallest and most "proud" of the 3 chicks (buff orp and easter egger are the other 2).
