I wont a breeding pen set up to get the most color variation in the eggs.
Here's my idea:
Taking a large pen an an putting in 10 EE hens, 3 brown leghorn hens an 3 maran hens. Then add one roo of each. I think it would need a lot of stuff in the pen so the roos cant keep a watch on each other.
Hatching all the eggs from that pen should give me hens that lay dang near every color egg?
This sound right or does anyone see a better way of doing it?
