Allergies

General Question

Hi guys, me and my husband recently moved out of the city to a small village. We would like to buy chickens for eggs, however I am not sure how it will work with my allergies. I remember that when I was little I had budgerigar parrot and I turned out to be alergic to it after a while.

I can eat chicken eggs with no problem, however I am bit worried if chickens will trigger my alergies to feathers as well. Do you have any experience with that? After all I won't keep them in my house.

Are there any chicken breeds that have less allergens? I tried to google it but I was only able to find that it would be better to actually have ducks instead. Any opinion would be helpfull. Thank you in advance.
