Thing is the better the show bird the more likely they will be useless layers Lol!
I have a couple of Marans who lay for a couple of weeks early in the year and a couple in late Summer they just strut around the rest of the time great big useless lumps
I have a couple of Appenzellers a cockerel and a hen He is very showy and so is she but she laid an egg nearly every day for the first couple of years and even now at 5 still lays every other day (smaller birds better layers often)
