Chirping
I have GLW rooster and am looking to hatch maybe 5-10 chicks to diversify the flock this fall and also get some extra layers in there about the time the original flock start going into molt.
My hen choices are Barred Rocks, RIRs, Black Austrolorps, Buff Orpingtons, and Easter Eggers. I'm leaning toward the Rhode Island red hens cross for potential egg size and yield. They have been my best layers of the flock currently. It would also be fun to do a couple Easter Egger cross with the GLW just for the color patterns. They aren't the highest layers so would be to "beautify" the flock if anything
