Hello everyone!!!
Well, got a beautiful coop with an EXTRA run. Now, I am ready to get some chicks, but I need your advice!!!
I am looking for:
#1: A quiet breed
#2: A friendly, docile and calm breed.
#3: A good egg layer.
I live in Florida, so also a breed that can endure the worst of the summer heat (June through September.
We have a very large fenced in back yard with a six foot high vinyl fence all around the yard. I plan on letting them forage freely often.
The breeds I am leaning toward so far are:
Australorps
EE (Americana/Ameracauna)
Buff Orpintons
Any advice and suggestions would be greatly appreciated!!! Thanks so much!!!!
 
Try turkens ( naked neck ) chickens... they are docile and very friendly and lay HUGE eggs!

If you are not concerned about the size of eggs.... try a Silkie mix..... they are wonderfully friendly, great broodies and cute to look at!

Buff Orpingtons are also a very friendly breed.. and extremely pretty!
 
Thanks!!! I'll look into them!!!!
