30 chicks and holding....no really!!

[earnhardtlvr]

got 4 more beautiful babies today!

Thanks Carol!

i wanted an eclectic flock and i think i kind of have my wish (until i keep reading about other different breeds

). I have: 4 light brahma's, 4 white crested polish, 7 EE's, 2 barred rocks, 2 salmon faverelles, 2 silkies, 1 sulkie, 1 frizzle, 2 batams (possibly white wyandotte's), 2 possible RIR's, 1 possible leghorn, and 2 possible blue cochin. Babies are 1-3 weeks old. Pictures with names will hopefully be done on Saturday and I will post so everyone can see my little cutie fuzzybuuts!

If anyone knows other breeds that are very friendly and social and good pets, please let me know. I'm thinking that some of my babies might not have these personalities and I might swap a few out.

Swap out....hahahahahahah that's funny. Didn't you know addition is all that's allowed.

ssssssshhhhhhhhhhh....DH reads this! Swapping out is a MUCH easier conversation to have. DH says

the coop is as big as it's going to get!

So...does anyone have any great

breeds that I should know about, so that if I have to swap out

I will know of some great breeds to get??

Hasn't anyone ever stopped at a certain number b4?

 

[welasharon]

I've yet to meet them....

When I was younger I stopped at 100 chickens.

Now that I'm older I stopped at 20 chickens. I don't count my pet birds!

 

[welasharon]

You stopped getting them....or counting them....

 

[earnhardtlvr]

I actually stopped getting them...and i'm even counting my 2 bantam's as 2!

I love my Dominiques

I've found them to be very friendly with little socialization.
But so far, I have yet to meet anything as cuddly as my turkeys
