What breed do you want next??????

[kathyinmo]

What I really want is to have a very very large beautiful rooster, that is sweet, docile, and gentle. I love the pictures of women holding their sweet roosters. So, what kind would that be? I would like to have a coop full of heavy breeds (next).

That is, to go next to my coops of small, smaller, and medium breeds! LOL

Buckeyes first, then Dominiques down the road a bit.

I would like to add a Cochin of every color and definitely some frizzles. I would also like a couple of silkies and another Wyandotte Silver Lace hen.

Bottom line - I just want more chickens!!!!!!

More Wyandottes.

Kathy, my blue Orpington, Suede, is a gentle giant, about 14 lbs. He follows me around and is calm when I pick him up. Such a good boy!

white houdans. there's a heritage farm the next town over from me that has a nice sized flock of them. back from near extinction. at $60 for 12 chicks it is a stretch in the wallet to get them.

looking into getting some of the black crested white polish. but i wish i had better luck at hatching or i would get the bantams i've seen through Boggy Bottom Bantams. (got some others from her but i had a 107 degree spike in the bator and lost them all.)

I would like some Buff Orps and some Speckled Sussex...mmmmmmmm...I think that would fill me up...oh and there is a Splash OEG that I think is really pretty...I would like anything in blue...

A couple Red cochin Frizzles and some Marans.

That is just what I want to be able to do! I have 1 week old Marans (black copper, blue, birchen ). I am handling them frequently, hoping I will be able to do the same. However, i don't believe they get that big. Is it common for blue Orpingtons to get that large?

BTW... Love your avatar Speckledhen!
