5 Tips for Chicken Breed Selection

by Kathy Shea Mormino, The Chicken Chick

When assembling a new flock of chickens, the enormous array of breeds available to choose from can be intimidating, but it’s important to make an informed decision in order to avoid disappointment for the chicken keeper as well as unnecessary challenges for the chickens. Some breeds do not fare well in certain climates, some are not a good choice for young children, some produce fewer eggs than others, etc. So, where to begin? Below are some of the basic factors to consider in selecting an egg-laying breed. After the basics are established, the field of  suitable breeds becomes much smaller and making choices becomes a much less daunting undertaking.
 1. Climate
Some breeds cope better with cold and snow than others, (referred to as cold hardy) and some fare better in very warm climates (referred to as heat tolerant). As a general rule, heavier heavier breeds such as Cochins and Marans, fare better in colder climates than lighter breeds, such as Egyptian Fayoumis, which withstand the heat much better than heavy breeds. This is not to say that a heavy breed cannot live in a warm climate and a light breed cannot live in a cold climate, but seasonal accommodations would need to be made for birds better suited for a different climate.
2. Temperament
While each chicken is an individual with its own unique personality, generalizations can be made about breeds in much the same way as in dog breeds.  If a household has small children where a docile, friendly dog is preferred, a feisty Chihuahuais likely not the best choice; likewise, a Hamburg would not be a good choice of breed of chicken in that case. Chickens are often characterized as being docile, flighty, calm, friendly and bearing confinement well or not.
3. Egg Production Rate
The rate of production can also be generalized by breed. Some breeds are known for being prolific egg layers, producing 4 or more eggs per week, (Plymouth Rocks, Wyandottes, Hamburgs) while others lay less frequently (eg: Silkies and Seabrights). If a family of eight relies upon the eggs collected from the backyard flock, Silkies are likely not the right choice. My Silkie didn’t start laying eggs until she was 14 months old and averages five eggs per month. (she’s an extreme example, however)
4. Egg Color
Each chicken produces a different egg color based upon genetics.  For some people, a colorful array of eggs is an important factor in breed selection, others, not so much. There are blue, green, dark chocolate brown, white and every hue in between to choose from. My neighbor insists on having a white egg-laying breed in her flock for the sole purpose of coloring eggs at Easter, while I prefer breeds that will produce fabulously colored eggs every day.
5. Broodiness
Some breeds are predisposed to hatching eggs more frequently than others. If a high rate of egg production is important, a broody breed such as Silkie or Cochin is not a good choice. If one wishes to have hens hatch and raise chicks, broodiness is very important and either Silkies or Cochins are excellent choices.
Monica, a Black Cochin Frizzle, is a breed known for being broody.
The Breed I Need
After the five primary considerations are taken into account, the selection process is fun and easy. When I chose my first dozen girls, I used the Breed Selector Tool at My Pet Chicken. Answering a few questions produces a photo gallery and detailed description of the breeds that fit those specifications. It doesn’t get any easier than that!

I have had many breeds of chickens but my all time favorites as pets are bantam or full size (which is really 3/4 size) rumpless Araucaunas – they are good layers, sweet natured, smarter than most hens and some will be broody but not too broody (don’t need broody-breaking!). Right now I would like a few sex links and would like to try Appenzeller Spitzhaubens since I’ve never had any of them – I have an interest in crested Dutch breeds too. Current flock includes Dominiques, RIRs, 2 Basques who are beautiful, 4 Easter Eggers, 2 unknown breed bantams and a Brabanter. Oh, and of course my Old English Wheaten Bantam Rooster Fritz!! For this year I would like also to try Speckled Sussex which I’ve had in the past. Francesca Austin – Oakland, CA

I would love some more Austrolops. We have one girl is she is always the first to come and see me in the morning. Her personality is what I love the most about her and that makes our flock seem so much more enjoyable.

Blue Orphingtons would be on the list also. These have a place in my son’s heart. He can hardly carry one of the girls, but they dont mind him at all. We have buff, so some blues would add to our rainbow.

I would like more speckled sussex. They have such great personalities. I also like the Australorps because they look so queenly and mine are. The EE’s because they are very friendly. All are cold hardy, good layers,forage,are not flighty,not broody(mine anyways)Just love these breeds and would want more of them. poochs@hotmail.com

You really are making this hard. Deciding which breed is about like choosing which dessert to eat. At present I have been looking for some Delawares. Though I do need a Dominique Roo for some hens (mine was killed.) Then I’ve been drooling over the Lavender Orphingtons, but they are kinda rare, not to mention expensive. Decisions, Decisions. Oh, and a Frizzle for fun.

I need the Easter Egger Bantam! I just love the colored eggs, and their temperment is perfect for us, plus they do well in our climate. (And I could really use the brooder–I hatch eggs every spring in my classroom. It is the highlight of the year for my students. And I use a Brinsea incubator.)

I have a large variety of chickens, but do not have a hen that “goes brody”. I end up purchacing chicks every year and raising them inside until they are old enough to be integrated into the flock. I would love or NEED a silkie like Freida to care for chicks and sit on eggs. I just love your updates with pictures of her being a wonderful mom to the eggs/chicks.

I am looking to get my first chickens. I am a veteran that has been finishing up on my chicken coop and it should be completed by March 12. It was started on March 1. I wanted it comfortable and secure. If I was to win this contest I would really like to have some Silkie Bantams (females). I can honestly say I spent about 3-4 weeks just reading on chickens and checking with the wife to see if it was alright. I even checked on local city code as well. I’ve raised animals (fish, canaries, dogs, and cats) all my life and enjoy having them. The chickens I would take good care of. My email account is jterhoeve@sbcglobal.net. Thank you for the consideration. I enjoyed reading your article.

I would eventually like to get a good strain of Double Laced Barnevelder, maybe with a blue strain. I would also love to have Cream Legbars. I have Marans in the incubator now with some Olive Eggers. Having the Brinsea brooder light would make the transition so much easier. We use a Brinsea Mini Advanced now.

I used the My Pet Chicken Breed Selector tool to choose our first batch of 6 chicks that should be arriving any day now! I have two children (ages 4 and 14) so friendly chickens were of the utmost importance. We were also sure to choose heat tolerant breeds as we live in NC where the summers can be quite sweltering. Egg-laying and color of eggs were of importance as well. We chose to begin our flock with 2 Buff Orpingtons, 2 Eater Eggers, and 2 Plymouth Rocks. I can’t wait to begin this adventure!

In the future, I might be interested in adding some Lavender Orps, possibly Dorkings, and Silkies because they are just too darn cute!

We just purchased a mix of 17 Black Copper, Blue Copper, Splash Marans to start a dedicated Marans coop. They are beautiful little happy chicks who hopefully lay an abundance of tasty dark shelled eggs this fall. And… I just won The Chicken Chicks silent auction for a mix of BC Marans and Olive Egger hatching eggs. Marans and Olive Eggers were at the top of my want list for egg color. Hopefully in the future I can get my hands on some Cream Legbar eggs for a beautiful blue egg in my basket. And I would love to have Double Laced Barnevelders and some Jubilee Orpingtons too. Oh so many wants. The new Brinsea Brooder would be an awesome win to make sure my egglets on the way have a safe place once they hatch! 😉

I live in Alabama, and have Wyandottes, Marans,1 Dominique, and 1 Ameracauna. I learned the hard way silkies did not do well for me in the cold, they ended up with pneumonia and my coop was to high up for them and we would have to place them up in there every night. I would love to hatch some more Marans and Ameracunas their egg production has been great! I would love to have a Brinsea instead of the dinosaur incubator I have now and I wish you were my neighbor, I love your blog!!!

After the hatch I recently had and trying to see which one of my hens would adopt the little dear chicks I realised it was going to be mine and the brooders job to be surrogates, I keep reading such good things about Silkies but im yet to aquire one, hopefully by my next hatch I will have a broody or invest in one of those Brimsea heat lamps.

One of the chicks had a bad foot and so we made him a sandal, just like your example on your blog. He’s looking pretty sporty!

I want a variety. I would likesome good egg layers,but I would also like 2 broodies for hatching out future generations. I would like egg colors across the spectrum so that it is easier to tell which chickens are laying and how often. Then if one stops laying for some reason, it will be easier to check which one and if they are sick and need to be treated. I ordered a bunch of different chicks this year, wyandottes, aracaunas, cochins, red star,and leghorns. I hope to later on get some Marans. I would also like to get some ducks because we have a pond.

Girls that I would love to have are Blue Ameraucanas and Welsummers. I would then have girls that lay all colors. 😀 What fun collecting eggs would be with a full “egg rainbow!”

I would love to win the brooder.

PS Thanks for all the vet care posts. Very helpful!

Kathy, I’ve been wanting Black Copper Marans. I have to admit its because of the color of their eggs. I have 20 plus various brown layers and 4 EEs and I LOVE the different colors of eggs I get. Itjust seems like dark brown egg would be the perfect addition.

Since I already have silver laced Wyandottes I think that having some Blue Laced Red Wyandotte would be very cool. All my chickens are brown egg layers and I love them all. I have Gold Stars which are the sweetest, Buff Orpintons, Astralops and my Silver Laced Wyandottes.

Hi! I follow you on FB and have no preference for chicken breeds so long as they are winter hardy… Winning a brooder for my soon-to-be-here chicks would be awesome!

    My golden laced Wyandottes are very winter hardy! And they’re laying like crazy right now! The rose comb doesn’t get frostbitten at all.

I have 5 hens but I need a few more 🙂 For no other reason that I have the room, and I’d like to round out my egg color palate. I currently get light brown, med brown, green, blue and an almost pink. So I’d like a Black Copper Maran for chocolate brown eggs, an Olive Egger for dark green, maybe a Campine or Ancona for white eggs, and lastly a Welsummer because I adore spotted eggs. That should do it..for now 😉

🙂 I have 6 week-old Speckled Sussex right now (and boy, are they hilarious!), and I’m getting a Barred Rock, a Buff Orpington, two Cinnamon Queens, an Austrolorp, and an Americauna on April 4th. I like a variety ~ but I want to make sure they’re friendly (I have grandchildren) and good egg-layers.

let’s see, the list would include: australorp, delaware, favaucana, faverolles, legbar, plymouth rocks, sussex, wyandottes, and of course Polish, just because they are so purty!

I have babies coming April 8th and one of these baby snugglers would be wonderful!
