First time chicken owner here. I have all hens here they are as listed along with some pictures
4- Blue Cochin's
3- Rhode Island Red's
1- Barred Holland
1- Barred Rock
1- Sultan
I have caught the chicken bug
So I have made the dive into investing in some chicks. What I have are as listed
4- Blue Cochin Hens
3- Rhode Island Red Hens
1- Barred Holland Hen
1- Barred Rock Hen
1- Sultan Hen
What kind of egg production should I expect from my flock? Figured I would start with ten hen chicks and see...
Just as the title suggests why do chickens roost to sleep? Also what would be wrong with having chickens just sleeping in the nesting boxes always cozy looking? Thank you
