My New Chickens

[Bammers14]

Hi everyone, my family of 5 is new to chicken raising. We all wanted one of our own chickens of different breeds to see what it is like. 4 of us have picked a breed that we would like to have. One of us picked a polish chicken, one of us picked a silkie, one of us picked a easter egger, and one of us picked a red or black star. The 5th one of us hasn't decided. Any feedback you could give me about the chickens we've already picked, also any suggestion for a 5th chicken?

Every one of the chickens you've picked are very nice from my experience. Also if you're interested in a chicken for a pet rather than eggs, try a japanese bantam. Mine are the nicest ever. Buff Orpingtons are very very nice as well.

I vote Welsummer or Barnevelder, if you can get one.
