That it has an aromatic door opener! WOW!

Thanks!

As a newby to this backyard chicken fun, if we are only getting 4 chicks, is it better to have all 4 in the same breed? Or may be it doesn't matter? And what happens if you have 2 of the same breed and 2 others? Do they team up against the others or do the just live happily all together?
