Ok so this coming spring were thinking of getting a few dozen chicks to raise/sell and while at it we've decided we may try to start a flock of Delawares(I love thier character!) But if we raise them to sell babies etc I know I may want to developed my flock to minimize some habits most small flock owners don't enjoy like:Their noisiness, Escapism, and aggression that is common in hatchery chicks(personally I think this makes them better sUnited free range birds though). So could I reasonably breed out or down such traits in a small flock of 4-6 hens+ a roo or would I be able to breed similar colored breeds into them for more laidback social behavior then breed back to get proper conformation w/ desired traits? Sorry I've never really bred for traits before other than my polish crossbreeds so idk! Also what breeds would you guys recommend? I know reds can produce proper color form when crossbred to Dels. but honestly my reds are just as loud and aggressive so idt that's going to do much unless the bird was veeeery sweet and calm(plot twist none of mine are!) :/
