    We are happiest with red star and barred rock brown egg layers. The barred rock being just a bit more accepting of humans. I have raised about 150 and more variety and these two have become our favorite for egg layers. I am not against bunting or using the chickens for meat birds. There are many that are better than the red star and barred rock. I don't like to kill anything anymore. I don't even fish. I have had over 1,000 deaths in my long tenure as a firefighter-paramedic. It has affected me. We have poultry for eggs and pets. We have ducks and turkey as well. And a search and rescue dog, the last of my 27, that herds the ducks and keeps the rooster from constantly attacking my daughter. Some of your top twenty I have raised when we also had meat birds. If your flock is small enough you will notice differences between individual birds. Good show. Now, everyone, go out and enjoy your chickens

    I really enjoyed your footage, you have my greatest respect because I can hardly take a decent photo of my chickens, much less such beautiful scenes. I get a kick out of each of my chickens, they are so individual and interesting. I have had some trouble this year with hawks, it is a challenge to give them freedom and keep them safe.

      Pay attention to the crows around you. They make certain warning calls, when a hawk is going to come around. Once you hear it take them in. That's what I do and I have 2 hawks that have our yard as part of their territory. And there's been some times when I got them in a couple minutes before a hawk showed up.
