Spring is already here in south Florida, and my coop is empty! Im looking around trying to decide which breed of bantams I want in my new flock. I keep going back to the Old English Game breeds. I sure like the looks of them, and they seem well suited to my climate, etc.
I also want a breed that is likely to brood easily. I realize this is an ornamental breed. Like I said, I really like their looks But I need to be able to justify having any more pets.
Its just my wife and I would a dozen or so hens provide enough eggs for our breakfast on Sunday mornings? Is there enough meat on one for an occasional pot of stew, for two?
Thanks!
