The Golden Polish crested chicken is a definite on my list. I can only choose 5 and so I want to have one that is really spectacular looking, and this is it! It’s kind of like having a hen and a rooster in one! Thanks to Old Frog Pond Farms for the photo.

I am very interested in getting a Blue Laced Red Wyandotte chicken, but they are very hard to find. This Blue Orphington Bantam hen is gorgeous as well! Photo by Nanny P

This may look like an ordinary young chicken, but this particular type, a Cuckoo Maran, lays chocolate brown eggs. I’m so excited to get my chicks. I’m going to get 5 hens for my first flock. Photo by QueenieVonSugarpants

This is a must-have for my flock: A chicken that lays blue-green eggs! Aren’t they lovely? Images via Goldilocks and Fatfinch.
