What's best for egg laying and meaty chicken and branches around to get one? I've got one orphington, one barred rock and one New Hampshire Hen. I've got a coop established and fittin to get more hens, but want a good investment thanks

Hello and Welcome to BYC! X2 on the BYC Breeds section and the Henderson chicken breed chart, it compares a lot of common breeds. http://www.ithaca.edu/staff/jhenderson/chooks/chooks.html#j If you are looking for a duel purpose breed, there is a long Heritage Breed thread on BYC https://www.backyardchickens.com/t/400344/heritage-large-fowl-thread
