I want baby chicks SO bad but my parents don’t want to have to deal with the chickens when I’m in college so their not going to let me get more :hit:hit BUT the year olds (which there are 4 of) are going to be around a lot longer than the couple of years before I graduate high school. So just let me get chicks lol
Here’s my dream selection:
- porcelain d’uccle (1 female)
- dark Brahma (1 female)
- Easter Egger (1 female, 1 male)
- mottled Cochin bantam (1 female )
- ayam cemani (1 female)
- splash ameraucana (1 female)
What are y’all’s dream breeds?? AND what tactics should I work at to convince them in need more? :gig

Ah I feel ya girl! It’s so hard sometimes to be a kid, and having to listen to our parents. Believe me, I know! Just remember that it’s important to respect our parents decisions, even if we don’t agree. I know that is WAY easier said than done!! But you have a beautiful flock already. Enjoy them! I know someday you will get more chicks, and be able to create your dream flock! A lot of kids would LOVE chickens, but their parents won’t let them get any. Be thankful you aren’t one of them! But really, I know it is so hard to agree and understand with our parents. I do speak from experience, being a young teen myself!

I have so many more on my list but I don't have it in front of me but this is just the beginning!
Thanks for sticking to my intent of this thread! I want most of those breeds as well!

Dream breeds?! I have to pick?! When I get my own chickens some day I am just gonna get the cackle surprise box. You don't get to pick what kind of bird you get or what breed or gender! Turkeys, ducks, chickens! Or I might just get impatient and just pick up whatever kinds they have at Tractor Supply. But I would like Silkies, Buff Orpingtons, Jersey Giants and Polish chickens.

lol guys this was just meant to be kinda funny and relatable. I’m not pushing on getting more chickens when my parents are the ones who will have to take care of them when I move out and they don’t want to. Oh, and this:

was a joke. Kinda like chicken math. Mostly I just wanted to hear all of your dream breeds.

Haha picking is hard!! They come in soooo many shapes and colors and sizes that it’s hard to choose!!

Yeah, I understand. Sorry, I really didn’t mean to offend you at all! Believe me, I understand the struggle of being a teen. I can totally relate!! I am not Trying to shame you at all. I am mostly saying that I have had to go through the same things, and your not alone! Again, I am sorry I offended you, and you really aren’t alone!
