Survey of Chicken Breeds and Hybrids

If you have several years experience raising different types of chickens, we would love to have your help with a survey we are conducting to determine characteristics of various breeds! This information will help people select birds for their flocks, and we plan to publish an article about the results in the April/May 2010 issue of MOTHER EARTH NEWS magazine.

Our survey is designed to compile the collective experience of as many people as possible, regarding various traits — foraging habits, egg-laying ability, temperament, potential for broodiness. The more people who contribute, the better the resulting information will be.

Depending on how many breeds you have experience with, the survey will take 10 to 15 minutes to complete.
