I started with one variety which are rumpwhites, I should have started with a self variety as they are in some ways easier to breed and would have been able to delve into the showing world more easily. Anyway I still breed rumpwhite sbut I have also taken on Blues which I love and as part of the Blue breeding I got hold of some blacks to improve the blues colour however I took a shining to the blacks so now have a seperate line of blacks too. Also last weekend I picked up some herefords, I literally dont know how I'm going to find the space for another line but if tey take off I'm sure I'll be able to do it again.
I would advise starting with just one variety but one that interests you and that you can dedicate yourself to improving. Marked breeds are challenging but rewarding.
