Can't add anything, but I love their intelligence, tameness and loads of personality. Also can appreciate their indomitable spirits and courage. Aristocrats of the chicken world. Hens don't lay terribly. Too avoid any problems, you only need to separate, separate, separate. Which can make things a little more expensive and labor intensive. Buy from a good breeder who has consistency and history to boast, expect to pay a hundred dollars or more per bird.
