Thank you! Like I said I got thes guys for free.. the lady bought them for an Easter petting zoo and then didn't want them after. She said they were all sexed females but I guess thats never 100%.. I don't know that much about this breed so I wanted expert advice :)

I got thes guys for free and I just wanted to make sure they are hens so that I can find homes for any roosters. Thank you!!
In my town our zoning officer is VERY strict and when our evil neighbors, who have reported us for varrious other things that arnt our fault or problem, reported our chickens not even the fact that they were a school project stopped the town from telling us to remove them. Remember it only takes...
Its all good. Soon enough I will be in my own house and farm and I will have 30 chickens in a coup I designed and built! Lol its weird because I live livestock but my family never had anything to do with them till I got older.
Hi. I was not there when it got in. All I know is that it was a very small hawk. I guess it sat on the roost in my previous picture. The run is closed in. everyone goes and are shut in at night. Thanks for the advice.
So the tital says it all. A small hawk somehow got into the run. Would my chickens be able to defend themselves? We have a rooster. this is tge best picture I have of the wire used. Would the hawk even try to go after the chickens, they're significantlly bigger than the hawk. Thanks!

I don't know about buckeyes. But I personally don't like rhode island reds. I find them very flighty and not very attractive birds. But that's just my opinion.
this somehow got deleted of my last post. But here is a picture of my five month old rooster next to his sister and our supprise hen. He is HUGE and is very friendly.
Personally I love my barred rocks. The rosters are big enough they probally have enough meat on them to eat. I have never had an agressive rooster either and my hens are all docile as well. Then hens are good layers. They do well in our Connecticut winters. I think they look good. But then again...
