This is probably gonna have some small stuff about what coop to house them in.
My flock currently consists of:
2 crele OEGBs (Diadem and Walnut) (hens)
1 BB Red OEGB (Chestnut) (hen)
1 SilverDW OEGB (Opal) (hen)
1 Golden Sebright (Franklin.D. Roostervelt) (Rooster)
2 Gray-blue splash silkies...

long eggs
round eggs(unless that is normal...
