I did a bit of research before I got my chooks found that Australorps or Transylanivan Naked Necks would be the best using the following criteria: 1. Self brood so no need for an incubator 2. Large size for meat production 3. Good layers even in the Australian Heat I chose the Australorp because they are Australian and the naked necks would probably give the kids nightmares

Wow, that wa poultry trader has quite a bit... Shame most people are trying to flog off their Australorp roosters, not hens. |
