New breeds.

I am planning on hatching chicks in the spring and was wondering if anyone had any suggestions on some breeds! I have lavenders, buffs, Americana's and some mixed breeds, I want some good layers and and a whole lot of color! I also have a mystery breed i really like and would like to know what she is , will add a picture in a little bit!

Speckled Sussex are super pretty and are good layers. Barnevelders are also very pretty and come in multiple different colors and pattern combinations.

Any double laced colors, partridge, speckled or a mix of those.

I agree with what Clover said about Barnevelders and Speckled Sussex, and I further suggest Cochins! Both the bantam and the large fowl versions are awesome. They are incredibly docile and vary greatly in color types!

Any idea what breeds? I hatched both from random eggs I got for eating but decided to hatch them instead. Lol

They both look like Easter Eggers (hybrids) to me!

What do you think the other side is, she is a cuddle bug and so pretty! I would like to get more.

I have never heard of a Barnevelder, I will have to look that up!

I just looked up the Cochins...... I think I am in love.

They are the most consistently sweet breed that I have found! Also, I have gotten my Cochins from Tractor Supply, so they aren’t too hard to find!
