I hope this post is considered to be a legit question. I went to a website called Murray McMurray, on the website I was looking at the various breeds available and some of the terminology used seemed rather odd, such as "Straight Run" a purchasing option right after "All Males", "All Females", I suspect this is a mix of both sexes. Prices varied - Usually "Straight Run" ran a little more expensive. What exactly is a "Straight Run", Is it even important to understand what it is...
Now, I pasted a quote, from a description on Murray McMurray below, for a combination of deluxe mix of chicks. They cast them as the "Rarest of the rare". Now I am not looking to become a "Chicken, ney a Poultry breeder" however I thought it might be cool to have a couple unique birds strutting around the yard. But is this really the right path for a guy who just wants eggs and chicken meat?
P.S. My wife said "Doing the rare collection, is like having a "vanity plate" on the work truck

So, any feedback would be greatly appreciated, so if either of these questions are "hokey or dumb", well mock me under your breathe and move on to more important things.
