hi. potential chicken owner here.
breed reccomendations for this please!
location ;; turkey/türkiye
experience;
* regarding chickens, I've only raised 3 in my life. one of them went on to grow up and have her own chicks even!
i also have experience on a variety of birds, such as finches and budgerigars/parakeets, and parrots on occasion
living environment
* they will be mostly indoor chickens, don't get me wrong. they'll have their own room will have flooring deep enough for them to forage + other types of enrichment; and will get to walk outdoors up to 1 hours a day, and roaming the house too. the ‘house’ is an apartment
* hot summers and cold winters (8-35 Celsius) , but they will be indoors so I doubt it will be a problem all that much !
purpose;
* pet
what I'm looking for in a chicken
*
make good pets, affectionate, intelligent
* quiet/er
* like people/children
* preferably *bantam* (as I think they'd make a better indoor chicken because of the size and one person reccomended I only get bantams)
breeds that are out of the question;
* d’uccle (not found here)
* old English game *bantam (not found here)
* silkie *bantam (not found here, standard are found though)
