Best stealth chickens

[gsim]

Have been wanting to post this for awhile now. I have a flock of, presently, 21 hens, 4 breeds. They are Rhode Island Red, Barred Plymouth Rock, Golden Comet, and Black Australorpe. I have come to believe that based on the behavior of my Black Aussies, that they would be the best stealth chickens ever. So I am posting this for all of you out there who have a stealth flock or are thinking of starting one. What are the best chickens for a stealth flock? I vote for the Black Aussies since they are so very quiet. Not only that, but they have good egg production all year long including wintertime.

Black silkies. You can't find them at night, or when they're broody, and when they're ANGRY.........









*runs and hides XD*

Do they lay large/jumbo eggs like the Aussies? Are they quiet like the Aussies/

Not a chance

Small white eggs, but they can hide in the tiniest of places and sit so still they're practically invisible...XD

magicpigeon; just in case you are being serious...
"Stealth" in this instance does not refer to "ninja" but rather "illegal" possession of a chicken flock within regulated city limits of our great fascist country, the good ol' USofA.

LOL you thought so?

I have Black Aussies as well. The hens are very quiet, but the one rooster is the loudest one I have! I can just imagine... ninja chickens... jumping from roost to roost, to defend the night! lol

Weeelllll... without body language and inflection in one's voice... It's easy to misinterpret and thus greatly increase miscommunication more than we already do face to face....

Sorry...

Though I did have a mental flash of a black ninja silky, moving from shadow to shadow, lol.
