Our friends across the pond, Wells Poultry, recently sent us this infographic we think you’ll love. Find a variety of different chicken breeds, their origin, size, purpose, egg laying quantity and egg color/shape/size in this excellently crafted chart.
You can download the full, unsplit, version of the graphic here. We suggest you print it and hang it in the coop to prepare for when chick season rolls around, soon. Thanks, Wells Poultry!

Just found the best range of hatching eggs I’ve seen at http://www.durham-hens-poultry-supplies.co.uk/
Nice range of Hybrid and pure bred poultry here durhamhens.co.uk
What a great guide, haven’t seen anything so well done as this for a long time. Will definitely need to make something like this for my blog!!
Wish they had put the names of the countries under the flags. I know a few, but definitely not all of them.
