Just like Pringles -- you can't have just one, LOL!
I like having a mixed flock -- it's fun having all the different colors running around in the yard (although I've got to pen mine back up, because there are LARGE raccoon tracks in the frost on the back porch this morning!). But if I can get a good line of Salmon Favs going and some Mille Fleurs, that will be plenty of color in the yard!

ETA: I need recommendations on where to get good Buff Orpingtons and Speckled Sussex for my project. Does anyone here raise them? Is there any decent hatchery stock? (I'd just as soon get chicks, really -- hatching eggs seem to be a bit of a crapshoot, although I know I'll have to get some for my Salmon Favs.)
Contact Hinkjc she has some really amazing Buff Orps, White Orps, Black Orps, Lavender and Jubilee (millie Fluer) Project Orps. They may also have speckled sussex but I am not sure if nto Bargain has speckled sussex I think.

Ooooh! If Hinkjc has Mille Fleur Orps, I might not need the Speckled Sussex! I'll PM her -- thanks!
