I am new to backyard chickens and would be grateful for advice on which breed is best for me. Thanks in advance! I need a chicken that:
- is a great egg producer
- very heat tolerant (I live in the desert with 100F summers or hotter)
- not inclined to fly over a ~6 foot block fence
- very friendly
Tips are appreciated. I have a well-shaded fenced in area (~500 square feet surrounded by block fence) with a few trees tall they should love, plus I'll make a nice big coop. Let them out a few times a week to roam the quarter acre backyard.
Thoughts on my plan? Happy for any help!
