    No breeding or butchering but shouldn't I have some way to identify them for record keeping and to simply know which is which?

    Since they are the same breed and all look the same, should I put leg bands on them for identification and record keeping? At what age should I do that? And can someone post a link to the best kind?

    Thank you. I have already bought the medicated starter and I plan to use the heating pad tunnel idea I saw on BYC. I have a heat lamp standing by in case the tunnel appears to not work too well. Tomorrows high will 96 degrees and I worry how they will fare in the mail.

    Hello BYC. I'm just starting out on my chicken adventure in Hudson, TX. I have ordered 12 Buff Orpingtons that should be arriving tomorrow from Ideal Poultry. I have my brooder ready to receive them and am starting work on modifying a 10x16 portable building into a 1/3 coop 2/3 storage...
