Russian Orloffs. Hatchery I ordered from ran out. Wish I had some experience with them, but I ordered for their great cold hardiness & beauty. Maybe next year.
Pea combed Rhode Island Reds.

Ordered those too, but none available! Sigh! Heard lots of good things about them.

Plymouth Rocks. An American classic breed, cold hardy, dual purpose and come in a range of colors.

Australorp. The Australian improved Orpington, Austral-Orp. Black utility dual purpose bird. Hold the record for egg laying though present breeds may not hold to the original standards.

Delaware. Another classic American dual purpose breed.

Almost forgot Sussex. Another great English breed, dual purpose, come in three varieties, Light (columbian pattern), Buff (also columbian pattern) and Speckled.
