Out in the boonies in the Tumpkas!!!

Greeting from Alabama. My name is David, I have 2 Barred Rocks, 3 Cornish Rocks (not for long), 3 Rhode Island Red, and 2 Red Sex Link. I have done nothing but overfeed my chickens and play around the farm. Im looking for the pages that have the characteristics about each chicken if not I would like to know how to start the thread. Also I'm thinking about getting Americanas and some leghorns. I am also interested in breeding and would like to know if cross breeding an abomination or farming?

Thanks,
David

If your intention is to create a pleasant backyard flock, there is nothing wrong with cross breeding. Welcome to BYC.
