Best overall breed for me are probably brahmas. Brahmas can be fuel purpose, do well in heat and cold, lay frequently and for me at least have proven to start laying first and stop laying last in the year as well as laying late into their lives. They are attractive birds as well and lay large eggs.

Runner ups for both large and beautiful eggs, and beautiful birds is a three way tie: Marans, Americaunas, and Welsummers.
 
We all love our hens, but which breed is best? Send pictures of your favorite breed or your hens, and let's see which is the most loved breed!
I have a few favs of ours but all for different reasons ☺️
- Buff Brahma because when young they cling by my side for safety (and then run away later lol)
- Black Australorp because they’re my sweet introverted shy girls
- One particular Rhode Island Red Because she’s smart as a tack and forgets nothing 😎
- Golden Comets because they love to be picked up and squat the minute they see me coming.
- My bearded Araucana because they’re so sweet and .. well that beard 🥰
- Those little white leghorns, because they lay some gorgeous big white eggs for such a small girls and they’re sneaky and mischievous personalities.

Sorry to mention so many but clearly I love them all ❤️🤣
 
Out of the different breeds that we have, don't even know half of what we have, my favorite are our Ameraucanas. They remind me of hawks, eventhough Iwas told the will look kind of like eagles. Not to me. Here is a pic of Ladyhawk. What do you think they look like?
