I’d immediately rule out Rhode Island Reds. We live in Sacramento and our girls can’t handle the 10-30 100+ days per year and have to come inside where it’s air conditioned. They are paper trained so this is not a big deal, just watch where you step in the kitchen!

I prefer the kind that comes in little plastic bags, already plucked and cleaned. :->

I would advise that the chickens carry sidearms for coyote protection. Or alternately, any breed able to kill a dog
sized animal..

It’s about time someone opened a chicken ranch in Texas, we’ve been needing a new one for a while.

Drive some of the back roads up here in East Texas with your windows down and you won’t eat chicken for a year...

If you want chickens that can survive hot temperatures, I would think that white chickens would be best (reflect heat better)—maybe Leghorns.
