4 chickens in NorCal

[IdahoPatriot]

Fairly new to chickens, had some back in 1983, but I was a dumb teenager and didn't really get 'into' chickens then. Fast forward to March 2018... we went at picked up 4 little chicks, 2 are Isa Browns and 2 are Tetras from Tractor Supply Co. (TSC). We still have all 4 of them, 3 are varying tones of red/brown, and one is mostly white with red/brown feathers random.
Tweety, Daisy, Betty and Waffle (she's the white-ish one). Waffle has laid a whopping 5 eggs - total. The others lay 1 a day, or nearly every day. Waffle doesn't even really look like a chicken that much. I'll have to find a picture of her and slap it up here.

I'm a avid woodworker, or creator of sawdust and shavings as I like to say. I built chicken coop #1 and recently built the 'Chicken Hilton' for our 4 lovely girls.

Previously had a dog and a cat, both died of old age - dog=16, cat=18. So, these ladies are now the 'pets', and, wonderful providers of beautiful brown orbs of tastiness!

That's about it... (for now)

It’s great to see you! I love your intro. You have a great sense of humor.
I hope you get a chance to show us your girls and new coop! Feel free to also share photos of your late dog and cat. We certainly don’t mind hearing about them.

Hi! Welcome to BYC! Chickens make wonderful pets. I'd love to see a picture of all of them, but especially Waffle. She is obviously a princess. And now she has a sugar-daddy (mommy?) to take good care of her. I'm sure she appreciates it!

Howdy, I thought tetras is a type of aquarium fish.!? Your white chicken could be a dud or she is a different breed and is maturing late. I have one Orpington 4yrs old never really got into that egg laying thing. She prefers the executive position of just being boss.
Welcome
