Aaaaahhh they're so cute and tiny and fluffy XD
I think my favourites are Japanese bantams (we had Pekin and Japanese bantams as a small brooding subflock as they just did better than the full sized chickens we had at the time). J's favourite are Australorps (had to ask him as I honestly couldn't remember what he had eventually settled on) but we're currently restocking with bitzas as he knows someone we can buy fertile eggs from.
I'm impressed with the size and build of your chicken house! Ours have a tiny little tin shed inside a fully enclosed chicken run which is never closed XD

A wooden chicken coop is best for winter, and a general coop for summer. But I can't seem to make one :)
What is a general coop? Sorry I'm dumb ^_^;
We got lucky, ours came with the house, we just had to put chicken wire back up xD
What's preventing your construction efforts?
Wooden chicken coop and general coop are the same thing. I just wasn't careful when I wrote it. Wood is a good insulator.
I'm currently hampered by a lack of materials.
There used to be three lumberyards in the village, so you could get laths, boards, and scrap wood. Now I'm not sure if one is still working, and only when needed when they have orders.
