Select High-Production Egg Layers

Solution

Choose breeds known for laying large numbers of eggs, often year-round.

Explanation

Breeds like Khaki Campbells, Welsh Harlequins, Golden Layers (Hybrid), White Layers (Hybrid), and some strains of Indian Runners are prolific layers, often exceeding 250-300+ eggs per year. They are typically lightweight and active foragers.

Notes

These breeds may be less meaty and can sometimes be more flighty or nervous than heavier breeds.
