You're welcome! If you want personality and non stop egg laying you can't beat Rhode Island Reds. One of my RIRs was attacked by a ginormous Red Tailed Hawk, honestly I don't know how she got away. It hit her back, flipped her over, peeled the skin and feathers from neck to legs and wing to wing and started to tuck into lunch. She managed to escape and came running with the flock, huge wedge of skin dragging on the floor, as if nothing was wrong. It was a Sunday evening and no vets were available so we had to cut off he trailing skin and patch her up as best we could. Her injuries were pretty horrific, I didn't think she would make it. We treated her for 3 months with Vetrycin to keep it clean and coconut oil to keep it moist and for that time she roosted on a step ladder in our games room. She has a bare patch but a lot of the feathers grew back surprisingly. Now she's really part of the family, she knows where every door in the house is and will make a fuss at each one until we let her in, then she heads straight for the fridge. If I don't open it quick enough she tugs at my pant leg until I get her some treats, then we go for a long walk before she rejoins the flock. She's a superstar, tough as old boots!
and don't i know it! I got lyme disease from those things, nearly died several times! So these chickens will be life saving ones
they're so sweet. We have one that is more ...intelligence challenged ... and she's really amusing, as you watch her try to work things out 
Haven't been letting them free run at the moment, just been putting them in a micro pen. Problem is we have dogs that can't be trusted, so trying to socialize the dogs at the same time as the chickens!
That's incredible! she must be a really survivor and hard as nails! Super cute behavior asking for treats
