OK, this weekend we are building a large run for our chickens... broadly we are running a fence round our orchard, which will have a ground level electric wire and one along the top of the fence.
We are also having a proper fenced coop area and inside that will be the shed.
Mainly we want egg layers and we have been working on the idea we'd get some rescue chickens.
But I also want Brown eggs, Blue eggs and white eggs.
What suggestions of breeds do you have.
Was going to get some Dorkings for meat... other suggestions?
