Today we finally got around to visit the recommended chicken-place "Olofslunds Kycklingar" to get answers to all our questions and have a look at the different breeds and their qualities. We all agreed on a mix of three different types. Ordered 5 of each hoping that we can keep 6-8 alive. The odds are 50% according to the breeder so we're not aiming too high!
This is what we'll have in our garden as of about 6 weeks:
Orpington is from England. They ley eggs all year around, but not extremely many.
She's very social and calm.
Colombian Sussex is a popular and beautiful breed from England. Lay many eggs, even during winter. A patient and tolerant type.
So start saving your egg cartons so that you can get some
eggs with you home next time you stop by!!!!!!!!!
