My first batch was a mixed bag: EEs, Delawares, Blue Andalusians, BRs, SLWs, Red Stars and one Buckeye the hatchery substituted for a Welsummer. I wanted to try a few breeds to see what I like. Later I got Black Copper Marans. I decided to breed the EEs, the Blue Andalusians and the Marans. I enjoy the others, especially the SLWs, but I can't breed them all, or so I've been told.
Of course, accidents happen.
