Minorca
Minorcas lay some of the largest eggs of any breed. They will lay around 120 extra-large white eggs per year. Minorcas don’t especially like the cold but will tolerate it in a draft-free coop with good ventilation. They love to free-range and forage on their own and like to be the first out of the coop in the morning and the last back in at dusk. Minorcas are a fun, friendly, and curious breed.
