Hello, I am pretty new to the chicken world. This site is awesome. We live in Independence Twp, Warren County and we now have 41 week old chicks! A pretty good assortment: Silver Laced Wyandottes, Jersey Giants, Speckled Sussex, Buff Orpingtons, Easter Eggers, Barred Rocks, Rhode Island Reds, Red Stars. It is only a week, but I am fascinated at the differences between the breeds. The Wyandottes are so curious, and the Orpingtons seem to be quite docile and enjoy being handled. I am so happy that we got into this! It is really a wonderful experience watching them grow and develop.
