I am looking for info on friendly hardy and good layers... I am working on my chicken coop and hope to get chickens next month.. would love to hear about your favorite chickens!
Here’s a link to the Articles section - https://www.backyardchickens.com/articles/ There you’ll find lots of information on almost every aspect of keeping chickens - from coop building ideas, to incubating eggs.
There’s a link on the page above to the Learning Centre - it’s a great resource. If you have a specific topic in mind, just type it in the search box - there's a wealth of information on past and present threads.
My favorite chickens are the Barred rocks, Rhode Island reds, and cinnamon queens. In my opinion, they are very friendly and good layers! Mine lay almost everyday. I also love Easter eggers! They are also friendly and lay the green/blue eggs.
How many chickens are you thinking about getting?
