Different Chicken Breeds in Small Flock

You didn't say Polish but they also can't see well. So, at least for a first flock, you might consider all Polish or no Polish.

Possibly, also get either all breeds known for being on the calm side or all breeds known for being good foragers; unless you have well over the recommended minimum spaces in the coop and in the run, at least. I tried mixing 3 of one type and 2 of the other in about the recommended minimum space.....which is why I say this. It wasn't a complete disaster but it took more management (left less margin for a beginner's learning curve.)
