RE: Homestead Thoughts: On Death [VIDEO]
The chicks are so tiny it's hard to tell. But I WILL tell you that our adult Buff Orpington hen is our favorite one. We've only ever had one, so that's not a good research pool, but she's a great forager, the only one that's laying so far, and not a jerk. :)
I hope you guys didn't lose all your buffs :( I think we are definitely leaning towards orpingtons first and then maybe later getting a breed that lays more if the demand for eggs is high!
That was the worst part... we lost all but ONE of the buff chicks, including the feisty little one that I was trying not to name. SIGH.
The adult Buff that we do have is awesome. She's a good forager and the leader of our tiny little flock.
oh no! well that totally sucks :(
