What type of chicken is the best for eggs?

[CovenantCreek]

I think you'll find that the breeds used most commonly in commercial egg factories will be the most feed efficient for the number of eggs produced -- and those tend to be the Leghorns and sex links, depending on what color shell you want.

actually the kind of chicken that lays the most eggs are the ideal 236 now they are not a full bred but they can lay over 370 eggs per year and only weigh 4.0 pounds, you can by them on ideal poultry.com they will be listed under standers poulrty and then leghorns.
