Never thought you could really get addicted to a website about chickens. I was wrong.

Ok so would a white Wyandotte or something like that be a good first show breed.

Yeah, probably. Or a white rock, leghorn, black tailed white jap bantam, etc.

I’m going to take your like as a yes and start looking for some show quality white wyandottes or something similar.

Ok! Sorry, lol, I was outside. White birds are all good. They're sometimes tough to keep clean, so make sure you keep up with the cleaning.

Yep. This is my social media.

Sounds good! Let me know what you choose!

There is also the part about convincing my parents so we will see if it even happens. I just so happen to be a teenager and can’t get new animals without my parents approval.

Me too. I get it. Good luck! Sounds like you have a good plan though.

I didn't even notice the diaper! Lol! How did he take to it? I was thinking about getting one for my quail a while back. He was super tame. Unfortunately he got sick and passed away, but his sister just started laying and every single one of her eggs is in the incubator! Lol

It took him a few days. I felt so bad putting it on him. He's definitely an outdoor boy. He has a flock of 7 lovely girls. I'm sure he's depressed without them. But our home purchase closes soon, so in a few more weeks, he'll be back out with the girls.

Now I have to leash him when I take him to the ranch tomorrow. We'll see how THAT goes....

I am also a teenager. So last night when I was talking about getting a show flock there is also the part about convincing my parents. I find convincing them is easier when you have done extensive research on the topic. And I try to narrow down what I want exactly so that is why I asked for breed recommendations for my first show flock.

My best friend's daughter is 12 and this week did a whole PowerPoint to convince her of why they should get chickens.
Mine are still young but I am loving my blue laced red wyandotte and French black copper marans (same chick is my avatar at 1week), thry will both be beautiful hens (pictures attached). I have 3 Silkies they are so FUN, still a little skittish at 6 weeks, some days they are no fun, and whether they're girls or not is still a mystery. Good luck!!

I reached the point of not returning after I got my three ducks. I truly enjoy the chicken life
