Jerseys

Are Jerseys a good breed to start with?

There's really no particular breed that's 'good' to start with. The Jerseys are a calm bird, the hens aren't noisy, the rooster has a 50/50 chance of being mean or calm. The only thing you need to keep in mind about Jersey's is that they'll take a year to a year and a half to get full grown.
