Over the past two years I have raised a wide range of chicken breeds. I love chickens so much, it's hard to really pick favorites, but in general I prefer a large breed with a sweet temperament. Getting a basket with tan, chocolate, blue and green is pretty cool too! Here are some of my favorite breeds (but watch to find out why!):
1. Marans
2. Easter Eggers
3. Ameraucana
4. Orpingtons
5. Cinnamon Queens
6. Wyandottes
7. Brahmas
