What would be your dream flock?

[Settler'sDreamFarm]

Name pretty much says it all lol what would be your dream flock......
what breeds how many, what colours and so on

 

[Illia]

That's quite a question. I believe I am slowly reaching my dream flock though - It would be my current birds of course, and:

About 12 of the best, darkest egg laying Black Copper Marans
A trio of Salmon Faverolles
4 Sultans, one a roo
A trio of Shamos
About 12 blue Ameraucanas
A trio of blue Turkens/Naked Necks
A pair of Lemon Pyle Brahmas
A pair of Tolbunt Polish
A Malgache rooster
A small group, perhaps 4, of Easter Egger hens - Love their diversity and quirky personalities!

I think that sums it up. and from there I would make:

Sultan-looking birds, probably blue or blue splash - Who lay colored eggs
Crested, Bearded, Feather Footed Naked Necks. (the bird with it all!

)

I guess I feel like I've pretty much got it finally . Now I just have to increase the numbers a bit on a couple of my breeds.

If I could order eggs or chickens from the UK I'd have to make a list of some different colors to add.

 

[Mary Of Exeter]

There are so many breeds and colors I'd love to have! My dream flock would be quite large!

And ever changing!

Illia, hmmm...Lemon pyle Brahmas? Sounds interesting!

 

[Illia]

ChirpyChicks created them, and is my idol in bird colors. He also has Chocolate Wyandottes and Orpingtons as well as Lavenders. The lemon pyles, though, are sooo dreamy.

Sadly though he closed his place and doesn't really sell openly any more. Also, he's in the UK.

I guess I would love to have more Ameracaunas, some Delawares, a few Sussex, a few more Australorps, a few Dark Brahmas, some Barnevelders, a separate small flock of Javas, and a few more buff orpingtons, barred rocks, and another Welsummer or two. Oh, and a few Silkies.

 

[WyandotteTX]

My ultimate flock would be entirely too large but here were be a few of the main ones.

Silver Pencilled Wyandotte LF and Bantam
Silver Laced Wyandotte LF and Bantam
White Laced Red Wyandotte Bantams
Dun Wyandotte LF
Partridge Cochin Bantams
Silver Laced Cochin LF
Dark Cornish Bantams
Spangled and Wheaton OEG Bantams
Golden Duckwing and Silver Duckwing American Game Bantams
Mottled Houdan LF
Rose Comb Black and White Minorcas LF
White/Black Langshan Bantams
Any Standard Modern Game
Silver Gray Dorking LF
ok I could go on forever with this. I think that list is enough to keep me busy for a few decades I think.
oh yeah, any variety of LF Malays....would just love to have such an extreme chicken to watch and see.

 

[catfish/okie]

My dreams are pretty big. I would like 8 small seperate flocks of the following. 10 white rock hens and 1 white rock roo. 10 white rock hens and 1 new hampshire roo. 10 new hampshire hens and 1 NH roo. 10 barred rock hens and 1 BR roo. 10 BR hens and 1 rhode island red roo. 10 RIR hens and 1 RIR roo. 10 buff orpington hens and 1 BO roo. and 10 white leghorn hens and 1 WL roo. I would also like 8000 acres plus 8 big bass ponds and a couple of hundred head of black angus cattle. With a river running thru it.

 

[nzpouter]

a mix colours of giant silkies.....

 

[Cindiloohoo]

About 3 dozen of each:
Delaware's
Buff Orpingtons
Buckeyes
Jersey Giants
RIR
New Hamp's
Cornish
Marans
Penedesencas
Cochins
Leghorns

Those are my favorites in that order, and I already have the Delaware's

I will work my way up eventually...nobody wake me up...this is a nice dream!!
