So I recently acquired a small tract of land (5 acres) with the option to buy more when/if needed. I have decided to start my own farm, independent of my family's farm. I am going to start off with chickens because they are probably the easiest and fastest way to get the farm going. I have my eye on Chantecler chickens. They are a Heritage breed and I want to help in preservation. They are listed as critical by The Livestock Conservancy. They seem to be good egg layers with decent meat characteristics. They are also well suited to the climate in Indiana. I was wondering if anyone had experience with this breed. You can only get so much from a description.

On a more fun note...I am trying to decide on a name for said farm. Looking for ideas. As a huge fan of A Song of Ice and Fire and marijuana enthusiast, the only name I have is Highgarden. I am thinking USMB can generate some great names.
