I have been looking for some egg laying chickens that can go mostly, or all, on forage. Couldn't care less if they were meaty or meatless birds. Don't even mention Buff Orpingtons. Some of the birds that I considered were Speckled Sussex, Welsummer, Ancona, Americauna (which i doubt is much of a forager but I sure like the egg colors), Blue Andalusian, Dominique or Barred Rocks, Exchequer Leghorn, Blue Laced Red Wyandotte (which I've heard you have to clean them often) and Silver Spangled Hamburg. Have any of these been good foragers for you? Please let me known.
