Study the standard. Look at lots of pics, and attend some serama shows if you can.
Buy the best birds you can afford. They need about 1 sq foot per bird. I keep a trio in a smaller rabbit hutch. Something like this....

Mine are stacked and dont have the bottoms open like this one, but its really neat. You could add it to any hutch you have.
I use a lot of tractors, made with free recycled wood. They are different sizes and shapes, but they work.
The hens are very broody and will hatch their own eggs. I had a hen go broody here on two eggs. She couldn't wait, lol
Seramas are super friendly, you can see lots of great cuddling pics on this thread if you scroll back. I've personally never had an aggressive one, and breeding for personality is semi important too.
The eggs are small and range is sizes shades. Here is a photo...

You can find breeders here or on the SCNA site. Just do your research and get eggs from the best parents you can afford, look at lots of pics of their birds, and get them from a reputable breeder. Right now its kind of hot to ship, but if you want to take the chance, go for it!
The most important thing is to get the best eggs from the best breeder you can get. I would really start out with an adult trio, so you know what you are getting in the quality of the parents, and let them hatch some for you, but It really depends on what you want to do with them...
I'm kinda broke right now - but when I get some money how much would some good hatching eggs cost? I have a small rabbit/chicken hutch with a run under it with a ramp that goes down into the run. It's probably a little bigger then the one in the picture.
Do they eat the same things as ragular chickens?
