Best Breeds for Beginner Flock owners???

[devonfeus]

All,

Any suggestions/recommendations for breeds for my flock?

I am looking at Rhode Island Reds, Buff Orbingtons, Barred Rocks and Easter Eggers.....

Thanks for all the help! Cant wait to get my little chick babies!

RIRs, orbingtons, EEs, leghorns, sex linked are all good. BR are good layers but in my experience they are bullies and don't like being handled, but that's just me
