I am getting 2 Salmon Faverolles, 2 Ameraucana, and 2 Rhode Island Red chickens in a few weeks. I am new to having chickens and am really trying to get chickens that will get along. I was also looking for chickens that were friendly since I have 2 small children. We liked that the Ameraucanas lay colored eggs because we thought those would be fun for the kids and we liked the Rhode Island Reds since they are supposed to be good layers. The Salmon Faverolles sounded like nice birds and I liked that they had a lighter egg color. I am concerned though that the Salmon Favs will get picked on. I am ordering from a hatchery and am going by what the catalog says in regards to disposition etc. However I thought everyone here would have more "expert" advice for me. Thoughts???
 
They'll all be fine, but I've gotta let you know - Your Ameraucanas will be crossbred chickens called Easter Eggers.

They'll still lay an assortment of colors though, as Ameraucanas only lay blue-green colored eggs.
