New chicks coming?

[Snowboy]

I think of getting 6 chicks for the spring so I can do the whole backyard egg production thing!! Any way I was thinking about getting New Hampsire Reds, Araucanas and Black sex link will they all work togeather? And what are those breeds like?

Yes, the breeds you mentioned are quite common and really don't have any special needs. They are nice enough without major personality flaws.

You'll see there are personality differences: from breed to breed as well as within the individuals.

Remember: chickens who brood together, hang in the hood together.
