We live in MN (North of Minneapolis/St Paul) and are going to start a small flock of chickens this year (our first time raising chickens). We have done alot of research on the chicken coop and how to get the little chicks started....but we have not decided yet on what chickens to get.
We would like to raise them mainly for eggs and we are starting small to make sure this is something we really want to do (getting about 10 chickens). Does anyone have any advice on what type of chicken would be good?
The hatchery we planned on getting our chicks from have the following available:
Americana
Gold Link
Production Red
Barred Rock
White Rock
white leghorns
california white
Purebred Bantams
Any help is GREATLY appreciated!
Thanks
