Well, I’ve decided on the chickens. I ordered one full box of 100 red broilers for meat, plus one quarter box of 25 pullets for eggs. The breakdown was 11 Golden Campines, 4 Spangled Russian Orloffs, 4 Silver Grey Dorkings, 3 Anconas, and 3 Welsummers. I’ve requested them to be delivered during the last week of May. They should hatch around the 27th, then arrive here on the 28th or 29th. That’s after primary lambing, and also after the weather warms up for the year. We’ll separate the two groups and brood them in different pens. We’ve found that the broilers grow too fast, and they cause problems when penned with the smaller egg layers.
