Them Orphingtons should fit the bill and keep you in chickens, and rabbits, yes! Good luck on your projects. And the ID thing, I learned more yesterday at the butcher shop than I have for the last few years reading about it. (note to self, post about it tonight if there's time), you can't believe the laws coming that would affect and destroy small town butcher shops. And that would effectivly destroy every grass based farmer. I have to give the culture of death credit, they leave no stone unturned. Tom Daniel,

While we are not in the "busisness" of farming the chicken coop will go up in a few weeks, followed by the fence (if it stays this warm I might be able to put it in sooner than I think) and we have settled on Orphington's as our reproducers. The rabbits are finally reproducing like rabbits and we will try our first open pollinated corn this year (some for fresh eating the rest to dry for feed). Lord I hope I can get a few goats before they too are tracked... Of course if they are I suppose I just have to find someone who hasn't bothered to have their herd barcoded :) Peace and Courage, Daniel Thanks for the encouraging word.
