In 2020 we got 10 Easter Eggers. They have been really great. Out of the 10 chickens we average 6 eggs per day. Backyard chickens should ALMOST be mandatory. So beneficial, useful, can learn alot from having chick's. Their manure is useful as well. It's just one step towards self sustainment. This world talks alot about it, but does not utilize it.

You have similar egg laying results to my own. My brown leghorns don't lay quite as many eggs as do the whites, but still lay even into old age more than 300 eggs, my Black Minorcas lay close to 300 eggs annually, Ameraucanas 300 to 320, Delawares are laying sometimes 2 eggs at once and straight through the coldest weather, so they are giving me over 300 eggs annually, and so on for all my breeds of chickens. Only the Brahma breeds lay about 200 eggs per winter thru early summer then go stubborn broody for 2 months! I really think a lot of the production depends on the feed and comfort of the hens.

I love my leghorns. Great egg layers that lay large white eggs, have a small appetite and are typically healthy and low maintenance. They are not as cold hardy because of their larger combs but have done well in my area of zone 7a-b, only having to use extra protections during abnormal cold weather events. They thrive as Free-range birds since they enjoy foraging and their agility make them a little better at predator evasion and though mine only Free-range part time they give no issue returning to their safe enclosure and are usually the first to roost. They don't go broody or raise young well but that can be remedied with another breed like the one we have recently fallen in love with and that is the Buff Orpington, the Hens are more friendlier than the Leghorn Hens and a little hungrier too lol.

The name comes from the hats of polish militants resembling the crests of polish chickens, also the polish chickens have many different names but they are believed to be from the Netherlands as depicted in their old paintings (i forgot what they're called). Also polish chickens can lay a lot of eggs once they get into the rythme of laying, we have 6 beautiful white crested black polish hens and they give us 3-4 egg daily, and we just added 4 more silver laced polish hens 2 days ago! 5 eggs harvested from 10 hens on the first day I'd say that's a keeper right there!

@Erewhon2024 Жыл бұрын
Pheasant keepers often raise bantams to be foster mothers for their game/exotic-ornamental birds. Partly because they go broody (incubating the eggs so chicks hatch), partly because they are light weight, so won't crush the eggs of even smaller species (like golden or Lady Amherst pheasants). (Most pheasants will sit on their own eggs also, but by taking them away to a bantam or incubator, the pheasant hens will typically try to lay more to overcome the apparent predation.)

Phoenix or Delaware Blue are the most beautiful; however, Ameraucana or Araucana have the prettiest colored eggs.

I just got chickens 2 weeks ago. They're are cream legbar mixes and 1 out of the 3 has quite a bit of auracana. She's grey with muffs and lays these very pretty pale blue eggs 🥰. The other 2 lay greenie coloured eggs (might be considered sage?)and look like most clb. They all very lovely, they a little nervous about being in a new place but are easy to handle once you catch them. They're names are Ducky, Pigeon and Goose

So happy for you! Is this the first time you have chickens? Love their names, I had a lovebird named Ducky, another one Condor 🤣

We keep and hatch Black Australorps and Rhode Island Reds. My kids enjoy the extra money they earn all summer. Friendly, do well in captivity, and handle winter weather well.

These must be averages and somewhat situational. My chocolate Marans definitely put out more than the Marans listed here. My Ameracaunas really crank them out too. Had isa browns a while ago and they definitely lay in that 300 range and they were a bit more friendly and trusting of people than my marans or ameracaunas. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend any of these breeds. They all seem to do well here in MN.

My Frost White Legbar laid a 3.06 ounce egg. She’s a tiny thing but frequently lays jumbos and extra large.

Golden Comets, not only prolific, but lay jumbo eggs. White leghorns are my second favorite. However I live in north Texas and right now, out of 40 hens, I'm lucky to get 4 eggs a day. Too hot, too dry.

Rhode Island Red is what I am most familiar with, but on the goat farm we didn't check to see their breed of chicken they were probably mixed breeds of chicken.

My flock is currently a mix. Rooster is an Australorp as well as one hen. Rest of the flock are: 2 Barred Rock 2 Sapphire Gems 1 Buff Orpington And a Australorp x Black Copper Maran (which is one of the most beautiful chickens I've seen)
