Hiya, Vanessa, and welcome to BYC!
So sorry about your son.
That's great his daughter gets to do something he loved.
We have a Learning Center full of articles about raising chicks and chickens. These are by our members, and some of them may even mention what breeds they have and a little about them.
Here's an article where the member highlights several different breeds and some important things about them. It's not all inclusive, but it's a good start!
Considerations you'll want are climate and their nature most of all since your granddaughter will be around them.
