As far as specific breeds, while I adore my Brahmas (my stately yard dinosaurs), since I want plenty of eggs I need to have more than just Brahmas.
This afternoon while working in the pen and sitting there watching Chicken TV afterward I just couldn't stop thinking that if I think of "Chicken" the shape in my mind is that of my Blue Australorps.
I got them by a happy accident. I'd intended to buy ordinary Black Australorps, but the farm store had gotten blues instead so I bought what they had.
