I started learning about chicken breeds here & there since last year, but when we got serious I started researching, watching, & reading trying to pick good ones especially docile & good egg layers. We have kids, & a handsy almost 4 year old- so I think these babies will be perfect. We would also love Olive Eggers, Polish, Silkies, Sex links, Brahmas, to name a few.. but for beginners, we already started with the chicken math.. we were only going to do 10, which turned into 15, & we actually ordered 16.

Yeah....16 was our first year *final* number. Started with 7, then 13, then 16

The Orpingtons we have are the sweetest and most tolerant with our kiddos. Followed closely by the Blue Laced Wyandottes who I love talking to and chatting with. So excited for you and your family's new flock!!

My boyfriend fell in love with his moms Buff Orpington, & then I showed him the Lavenders & we both loooove the color so we got those. My friend has had a lot of chickens & her favorite ever was her lavender Orpington.
I am so glad to hear about the Wyandottes, that just made me so much more excited! I found the Blue Laced Red Wyandottes, didn’t even know that color was an option.. got the Roo in that option too hahah. We were going to also get the silver laced, but since we already had 4 of that breed I wanted to try the Rhode Island blue, super pretty! What breeds do you have?

Sounds like a beautiful mixed flock! I don't have any laced birds, much to my sorrow! I have Easter Eggers, Dominiques, which look like Barred Rocks except with a small rose comb, and a few Black Australorps. I am ordering some Cuckoo Marans and Blue Rocks as replacements for my older EEs. The Marans I want for the really dark brown eggs, and the Rocks for the light cream eggs. That should balance out my egg basket! The French Black Copper Marans are too pricey for my budget but the Cuckoos were quite reasonable and should still give me the dark Marans egg. Here's hoping, anyway!
