My husband and I close on our first home in 20 days. We're very excited and one of the first things we want to do is build a coop and get some chicks!
We're sold on buff orpingtons. We also like araucanas. But I figured I should ask the experts and see what you all say about breeds for newer chicken keepers and especially those with children? We have three little ones and plan to teach them to be calm and gentle with the chicks, but we also want to hear more about breeds that are good with kids, urban settings, and Colorado weather.
If anyone has any advice, I'd love to hear it! Thanks
