Welcome! As other have said, there are many breeds that are great layers! Just do a little research on different breeds and I bet you'll find some that you are in love with!! Good luck!
from Ohio. If you look at Meyer hatchery (there are many others) on line, you will find a list of the chickens they carry. It will give a description of the different breeds, so you can choose the ones that best suit your needs. Some hens are calm and some are skittish. Some can handle heat and cold, others cannot. Good luck.
