If I *hypothetically* wanted to get some coloured egg layers which ones should I get?

Are they good with bantams? Thor and Noodles aren't gonna grow much bigger.

Yes, if they are raised with bantams, they should be nice to them, especially if they are younger. My CCLBs are pretty small too.

Thanks. I wonder if I can buy female chicks or maybe growers. But I'll probably have to get adults

Hmm.
I found "breeding trio poults". What is that? Growers? Would one be a roo?

What if they are outnumbered by bossy bantams?

Poults? As in turkeys?

I won't be getting them until late this year so I won't worry about that now because I can ask then. I just need to learn about creamy leggies!

Well, they can be sexed at hatch, but I’m not sure if you can get any chicks...

Hmm.. you’d probably get a cockerel if I had to guess then.
