I ordered birds awhile back and we are loving it!
However because of a recent incident I had to add on to my coop and then ended up finding a new home for the flock instead (see post in emergencies if curious why).
I had ordered araucanas because my mom loved the idea of blue eggs, however they turned out to be roos. So I find myself in the unexpected position of getting to order more birds
(my mom really wants those blue eggs and I don't have the heart to get rid of my 2 roos).
So I am going to order some araucanas for spring and I can also get a few other breeds and I would love any input anyone wants to add on what I should order.
I already have 5 RIR and 9 Black stars and 9 Red Stars
Thinking about some Cuckoo Marans.
I have three young children that love the birds so no flighty or mean ones, and I live in a warm/hot climate (Houston). Don't have to be heavy egg producers, can have a few that are just fun.
What do you think?
