In a rural setting, would it make much difference in how you manage
or house chickens if you bought the left over chicks that a hatchery
offered as a "selection", usually 25 chicks.
(In a city you could not keep that many birds and you would want
tame quiet birds, I assume.)
I have read that some people thought that they got "mutts", accidental
cross-breeds. Would these be undesirable birds, considering I am a
beginner and not a breeder.
