I did consider those for a while but after reading descriptions decided they were too flighty for my taste.

Alright, you got me hooked.Where do I get 'em? Hatcheries are okay, as long as they sell decent stock.
I would like to have sexed chicks, though...ever purchased from My Pet Chicken? They seem okay to me, although they don't have chicks until June.I recommend Ideal Poultry. That's where I purchased my first D'uccles. The quality is okay, and they have ALOT of colors
The only thing about My Pet Chicken is that they drop ship. Meaning they don't breed their own chicks, they just order for you from another hatchery, sex them, then send them to you.I would like to have sexed chicks, though...ever purchased from My Pet Chicken?

I would suggest alot of other breeds for showing but if you also want some thing that lays good and looks good I would suggest any type of wyandotteI didn't know where else to put this, so I decided to put it here because I want to get baby chicks of the breed I choose. This is my first post on BYC, other than introducing myself, so here goes:
I want to start a flock of chickens, but don't know which breed to get. Could someone please help me? Here are the requirements:
Needs:
to be recognized by the APA, as I want to show it
to be either small or medium size
to be good in all temperatures
to be friendly
I really want it to:
lay fairly well
have some type of pattern
I also am pretty interested in colored eggs, but this is not a necessity.
And a bantam breed might be okay, but I don't really want to have a bantam flock because they don't lay as well.
Does such a bird even exist? I've been researching and haven't run into one yet, so
PLEASE HELP ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Ditto.It is pronounced "Dew-clay". Some people say "Dee-uckle", but I prefer the first pronunciation. It sounds more French.
