Hello! I grew up with chickens but haven't had any since we moved to town. Just heard we can have backyard chickens in town and trying to read up on breeds and keeping them before we purchase any. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Hello :frow and Welcome To BYC! How nice that your town is chicken friendly! A great place to start reading is the BYC Learning Center, lots of good articles on all aspects of chicken keeping you'll find helpful. https://www.backyardchickens.com/atype/1/Learning_Center
Here are a couple of links to some nice chicken breed comparison charts you might like http://www.sagehenfarmlodi.com/chooks/chooks.html and http://www.albc-usa.org/documents/chickenbreedcomparison.pdf when you have narrowed down your choices, don't forget to check the BYC Reviews section for member reviews on the different breeds. https://www.backyardchickens.com/products/category/chicken-breeds
And it is always fun to check out your state thread for chicken keeping neighbors and what breeds, coops etc they are happy with in your area https://www.backyardchickens.com/t/270925/find-your-states-thread
