Hello,
After having read a lot of threads and reviews on BYC, I'm really starting to second guess my rather indecisive hatchery order. I am disabled, so it's important to me that I have breeds that are generally friendly and lay well or at least lay colorful eggs (realizing some individuals are just oddballs). I've listed what I have coming below:
1-Day chick order: Barred Rock, Black Australorp, Easter Egger, Gold-Laced Wyandotte, Red Sex-Link, Rhode Island Red
Incubating: Ameraucana, Maran, Cream Legbar
I'm thinking I should cancel the Easter Egger (redundant), Wyandotte, and possibly RIR. Maybe replace them with Salmon Faverolle?
What do you with first-hand experience think?
Thanks in advance!
