Brief introduction on breeds
There are over 5o breeds of chickens and they are all individual and unique, Some are rare and pure breeds are mostly only seen in shows. Hybrids are crossbreeds of chickens, they are known for laying a lot of eggs. This is why all battery hens are hybrids. Most lay around 300 eggs per year, they also tend to be a docile breed and one of the most immune to diseases.
If you are rearing chickens for the table, speckledy hybrids are great because they are naturally large and stocky!
