My husband and I got two laying black Andalusians and a cochin mix earlier this year, and recently decided to expand.
I wanted something more unusual, so I jumped on a couple of two month old turken bantams when somebody decided they couldn't keep them with their full size flock. The little black copper maran came along for the ride because he's much younger and had been living with the bantams for company, since the older chicks would have picked on him. I say he because of a suspicion, but I'm not 100% sure yet.
Their names are Rose, Pearl, and Steven. They're all ridiculously cuddly and sweet, which is a nice change because our older hens are not particularly friendly. We hope they eventually learn to like us more, but they weren't fussed over as chicks, so they're just skittish.
