What breeds do you wish you had?

Living in a residential area, I wish but can't have as much as I'd want but have had/raised OEGBs, Seramas, Wyandottes, EEs, Orpingtongs, Australorps, RIR (not my favorite, Hubby's idea) .... Orpingtons my favorite breed. Wish I could have one in each color, hummm, that's an idea :fl but living here, it's a "dream".

Have been curious about the Whiting True Blues & Greens. Got 2 of each, the 2 on the left are WTG & on the right are the WTB, 5wks old and their personalities are developing. So far they are fun and love the color variations, no complaints, haven't found them any more "flighty" nor skittish than other chicks at this age. Waiting to see their eggs.

EDITED: I'd like to get some bantams (Porcelain d'Uccle, Mille Fleur d'Uccle and/or Quail Antwerp Belgian) but having to order SR of 15+ won't work for me due to living conditions ... What to do with the cockerels :(

I want one of every color Old English bantams come in, which means I want 29 more OEGBs.
I can certainly understand that! They are so tiny and feisty. They are adorable. We lucked out with only one OEGB cockrel from the bantam bin, and five girls. He is our pet. He only nips when I try to kiss his head. I told my daughter that's his way of kissing. :gig

I love my silkies, satin and Seramas. If I ever decide not breed silkies or convince my husband to build a couple more coops I definitely want to stay bantams but would go non feather leg like OEGB or D’Anvers. I stay with the silkies because it’s easy to separate for breeding without permanent dividing my coop becomes they don’t fly.
