Oh I'm sure it will. I'm not sure how I lost control - I'm not sure I ever HAD control.

too true!!

Actually I suffer from indecision, too. My next favorite breeds are Brown Leghorns, Rhode Island Reds, Barred Rocks and EE's from these breeds and my Araucana rooster.

I had Wyandottes one year, they laid the prettiest pinkish eggs. They looked so pretty in a basket with the other colored eggs. But, those wyandottes were the meanest chickens I ever owned. The three things they did best? Eat, lay, and TERRORIZE the other hens!

I don't remember what I did with them, but I do remember the peace and quiet in the hen house after they were gone!

Oh dear! I read that Wyandottes are friendly chickens??

My sister has six Peking Bantams, and wants to know if Polish bantams are a good addition to her flock?

I haven't had any issues with mine - I get more grief from the Marans than any of the others. Guess chickens are like people, huh? All different sizes, colors and temperaments!
