    Hi all! I have been lurking around the BYC community for a while, soaking up all the valuable advice, but thought it was time to participate. We have 8 chicks (hopefully all pullets but that's a separate thread): a RIR, an Ameracauna, a Buff Orp, a Black Australorp, two SLWs, a Salmon Favorelle...
