I thought it might be helpful for new chicken peeps to have a thread they can refer to for opinions on different breed characteristics and what other chicken folks have found out about their different breeds that they have in their flocks....does that make sense?
Maybe we could list for example:
Friendliest chicken
Most skittish chicken
Best layer
Worst layer
Largest egg
Smallest egg
Prettiest egg
Top of pecking order
Bottom of pecking order
Smallest chicken
Largest chicken
Favorite chicken
Least favorite chicken although I think most of us will have a hard time with this
Or maybe say which chickens you would definitely have again or ones you would not likely get again..
or any other attribute and/or fault
This way people can get a sense of what having that particular chicken would be like. Or see if maybe their chicken doesn't fall in line with the typical say "barred rock" or example.
Please try to format in the same way in each post so its easy for people to compare and scroll through post with maybe a little blurb at the end about your flock....
Ok GO!.....I'll start
