I have:
Adult hens:
2 barred Rocks, 1 Rhode Island Red, 2 Dominique's
Chicks:
1 Dominique, 3 Golden Buffs, 6 Rhode Island Reds, 3 Barred Rocks & 1 mystery chick
I just gave my brother the 2 Dominique's and he is getting all of the chicks, I'm just raising them for him till they get older...
I always order from Meyer...
I just got a surprise pack of brown egg layers, they were on sale with free shipping...
Anyway, I have all the breeds figured out except for this one in the picture.
I'm familiar with Barred Rocks and I thought it might be, but now that they are a week old, this...

Yes I agree.
I actually make my own flock blocks, there are lots of recipes online for them.
Mine are very bored too. Haven't seen my grass in 3 months from all the snow and were are to get at least another foot tonight.
I was throwing ice chips...
One lonely little brown egg...
Luckily I caught her in the nest box this morning, and waited around for her to lay, so I could get it quick before it froze. It is 9 degrees outside!
Can't wait to see the basket full, although they seem to get used up before we ever get to that point...
