Nice to have another poultry person here.

If you want more information on chicken breeds, here are a couple links for you to check out. They may help you decide which chickens are the best fit for you.

I'm sure there are a lot of other sources but these can at least help you narrow the list down. Where do you plan to get your birds? If you're wanting to get them from a hatchery, they are already taking orders for 2015 so don't wait until the last minute.

I've had Rhode Island Reds (along with dozens of other breeds over the years) and they are a hardy, dependable, dual purpose breed that lays lots of large, brown eggs. Also among the few duck breeds that I had were Pekins; not as good a layers as Khaki Campbells, but excellent meat birds. Good luck in getting your flock.

Oh, well I would like to have good layers since, I wouldn't want to kill them
