Question of the day: What is your favorite breed of chicken?

The question that I am really bad at answering! I like, pretty much every chicken. But there I some I like more than others, or are interested in breeding for show. Like Nankin bantams, Cochin bantams, modern game bantams, I also really like Houdans, but will probably never get one. And I have a fancy for Japanese bantams and old English game bantams.

The one I want to own the most is a Mille Fluer. Out of the ones I own Sebrights are my favorite.

I have MANY different favorite breeds of chicken. There is no way I can narrow it down to just one.

I love barred rocks - beautiful, great egg layers, friendly, great starter chicken. They were one of the first breeds we ever owned.
Ameraucanas, cochins, oegbs, leghorns, and sebrights are right up there with the barred rocks!

I am shipping eggs for the first time next spring. I will be shipping 6 eggs to @Savethereptiles . Do you guys have any advice? Has anyone ever done it before?

No. But all the eggs I order come wrapped individually in bubble wrap, in the middle of a box full of those white peanut things, with the pointy end DOWN. and I'm assuming you're NPIP certified.

Ok. I watched some videos and one packaged them like that and the other did it basically the same but with shredded paper. This is a one time deal to see how it works. I have another thread on rules for shipping eggs and they said I should be fine if I just do it once. My flock is Pullorum Typhoid free and I have a certificate to show it, so I dont feel as bad. The state I am shipping out of and the state I am shipping to say the law for the NPIP is that they are Pullorum Typhoid free. My flock got tested in September and I have brought no new birds in.
