Here is what I currently have:
1 EE, 1 Blue Andalusian, 1 RIR
Unlike what I usually hear, my RIR is friendly but LOUD. My EE is by far the friendliest (I can call her and she jumps onto my arm) and the andalusian is really quiet, but when she does make noise, it's more of a quiet coo.
Here's what I need:
They're for eggs only so it does not need to be dual purpose, I'd like a good layer
Heat tolerant- It gets up to about 120 here, the lows are rarely below 28
Quiet- I live in the middle of the city and don't want angry neighbors
I would like them to be friendly to me, but that's not as important as them being friendly to the other hens.
I'd like to get two different varieties so I have a good mix. I can only get two because where I live, the law says I can have 5 hens. I was thinking an australorp maybe? Barred rock?
