Hi Fab Farmers!
I was wanting to know for a beginner what breed is the best to start with. I just like to have good brown eggs and the best fresh meat and still be able to have them to bring me more chicks so they can grow up and do it all over again. I will be having them in the back yard. I live in sc. I don't know how to get started as I've never done it before. But I'm going to try it out and hope it all works out
