Pros: Looks and personality
Cons: Size
I have Black, Blue, and Splash Ameraucanas. Egg colour is more green than blue but I'm working on that. Fabulous personality but my first Ameraucanas lack size. I'm hoping to work on that.

Frizzle

Pros: Cute as could be!
I have a White Rock bantam Frizzle. Cute as could be, raised by a broody and definitely holding his own as the only bantam in amongst all my large fowl. I'm hoping for frizzled Easter Eggers down the road.

Pros: Coloured eggs
LOVE the coloured eggs! Birds' personalities are varied - some very friendly, some not so friendly

Pros: Cute as could be
Cons: Not sure yet
I have one white bearded Silkie. Cute as a button but definitely stands out from the other chickens. I have more Silkie eggs on order so stay tuned!!!

Pros: Dark eggs
Cons: Not necessarily the easiest birds to keep
I have Black and Blue Coppers. I love these guys but they are not necessarily the easiest birds to raise/keep. I had rapid growth issues with my first hatch (leg problems) but yet they wait until 31 weeks plus to start laying. Plus, because the breed is so new - LOTS of variation in what comes out of the egg. But I am going to stick with them.

Pros: FABULOUS hatch rate
Cons: Not alot of head room for chicks
Fabulous little incubator. Temperature and humidity are VERY constant. Hatch rate is tremendous with this incubator. Head room for the little hatchlings is my only complaint. It's a tight fit.
