I put my chicks in the run with my older birds. The chicks are in the brooder still but yesterday I was able to stay home and observe them so I decided to let the chicks out and get to know their new flock mates. The older hens were less than thrilled to find the strangers, who had been inside...
Can anyone help me identify the breeds of these birds? If this isn't the place for this thread I'm sorry. Please advise, moderator and I will take it down.
I got my first chickens from Tractor Supply March 20th. I've had a wild ride. My wife and I are looking to homestead, planting edible landscapes, and raising our own chickens for food and for eggs (predominantly for eggs, with a priority in tick eradication). I'm glad to be a part of this site...
