New Chicken Mama

:frow Hi and welcome to BYC! Addictive, aren't they, the little rascals! Yours are adorable. I have some lavender Easter Eggers (EE) and think they are very beautiful. I am not familiar with Diamond Duchesses, but they look a lot like Dominiques, which I have on order and also find quite attractive. So many varieties! Are you familiar with the dangerous disease known as Chicken Math? All I will say is, figure out how big of a coop and run you think you'll need - then double or triple it! (Runs away, laughing)
Haha I’ve already been a victim of chicken math slightly. I started with just the 5 Orpingtons and then saw the Diamond Duchesses when I was at the feed store buying supplies. They’re supposed to lay colored eggs. It’s a new breed exclusive to Family, Farm & Home stores that from what I’ve gathered is likely a cross between Barred Rock and Cream Legbar. I so hope they have the tufts of feathers on their heads like the Cream Legbars do, if this is true!
