Silkies! They are super sweet. But if you are wanting daily eggs they may not be the best. My Plymouth is sweet too...and she lays one egg a dayCan y'all recommend the best breed for a newbie to start with. We are about an hour away from Houston, just finished our coop, well almost finished, we still have t finish painting, and adding a few other fishes to it, but all should be done next week, we are planning on picking up our Hens next week. The plan is to do 4 chickens, sadly the max our coop will take, and also they will be illegal, since our neighborhood is completely anti chickens, but yet we can have a horse. SO we are thinking 4 RIR's or maybe 2 RIR's and 2 Bared Rock, or maybe 2 RIR's 1 BR and 1 BO. Other issue is that I need quite Hens ( so neighbor behind us wont hear us), and friendly since I have 3 small kiddos.
Thanks everyone.
. MY husband want all 4 Hens to be RIR's, I think that's a bit boring, and would like a little color, and a bit of a mix, we'll see when we go get them. but the kids have named them already, polly, penny, mini and lulu (lol).
