What Breed(s) Do You Wish You Had?

[Ms Clucky]

Silver Double Laced Barnvelders; LF and bantams!
Beilefelders.
And bantams! Always more bantams!

Yes! Always more Bantams. My feed store doesn't sell stuff for smaller chickens. Like smaller feeders and All Flock crumble. Mine can't eat the pellets. We have to go to a different town to get it. Trying to get my local store to get it, but it's like pulling teeth.

I'd like a little tiny rooster. Like the size of a cola can. That would complete my life. I'm still burned on my last rooster though, so it may be a hot minute before I go hunting for a tiny roo. I'd like some silkies too, just because they look so cool. Maybe some tiny bantam mme fleur d'uccles? So many feathered friends to choose from. I'm limited to 6 chickens though, and I'm currently at 4. I just know I'm going to run into a tiny roo and fall in love. There is a tiny roo at the tractor store that tends the baby chicks for sale. He is the best care giver ever, such concern for his charges.

Do you have any idea about the breed or mix of the "The Babysitter?" I'd love to know what to look for!

Fevorelles or bantam Fevorelles. But I need tow aiy. I added 8 fluffies, 3 buff operington, a black bantam cochin, 2 ameracunas (or maybe EEs, when they get bigger I need to do some feature comparisons) and 2 Blue Laced Red Wyandottes to the flock this spring, no more room until I add some infrastructure.

I'd love sooo many bantams.
Among them, White Faced Black Spanish and Nankins.

Depending on what we get, hatch-wise, I may be able to hook you up with some RC Nankins. I'm in Maryland, but I have family in MI coming to visit some time in the next year. Who knows ... they may be willing to deliver as far as Flint.

Mine have been able to eat the Purina Flock Raiser pellets.
I only have Cochins and a Japanese hen.
But I have a D’Uccle chick now as well as several more Cochins.
I’ll be getting 16 bantam Bearded Belgian Antwerp Quail chicks the first week of May.
I hope they can eat the pellets when they grow up because the crumble makes a huge mess.

They should be able to. Even my tiny juvenile Seramas can eat pellets.

It's spring and my search history is full of hatcheries, but my space is limited. There are sooo many breeds I wish I had that I either can't find, can't afford or both
What are some breeds you wish you had or wish were easier to find??

I wanted a silkie, but my 5 yr old doesn't like the look of them and says I can't have one lol

I'd say "Sorry kiddo, but I don't negotiate with terrorists. Silkies it is."

blue salmon Faverolles
and
blue silver laced Wyandotte

Would be a couple of varieties I’d pay a bit for if I could find them somewhat near
