Hi, everyone,
I am getting three hens for my backyard this spring because I have an old duck coop that isn't in use right now. I was debating whether I should get some black australorps or buff orpingtons. I need a breed that is relatively quiet, produces lots of eggs, docile, and extremely cold weather hardy. If you have any more suggestions of breeds that could live in a suburban backyard please let me know. Thank you for all your help!
