The first 2 pics are of a R.I.R. cockeral.   3 and 4, EE mix??? pullet.   5 and 6, R.I.R. Pullet?   They're all approximately 6 weeks old.   I need help with the breed of the dark pullet and the sex...

That a really creative layout! I like how you used an open roost with a cover off of the ground. It would be great for banties or chickens that can easily reach it. Where do you keep the nests? Awesome ideas! :)

So, out of the blue I got my first egg of the year!        

The first photo is of the chickens we've had for years. :) So, I know they're all mixes, other than that one lone Barred Rock.   The rest I got from someone who wanted to get rid of them. He didn't know what they were. But...

#1 - Barred Rock Hen and Barred Rock Cochin Hen (mix). The rest I think are just mixed breeds! My only rooster in the middle.     #2 - I'm thinking Rhode Island Reds, Araucana's, and Black...

Thanks!

Barred Rocks are great layers! And one of mine was the mother of most of my flock. So great layers AND mothers!

Congrats!

Ivy - Thanks! I will definitely have to get some in the morning! Can't wait to see how many colors I can find! :)   And welcome back. :)
