I'm down to 9 hens and while chicks are fun I'm done adding to my flock. I want to make sure I can take care of them (spoil) properly and I'm not getting any younger. The remaining Cinnamon Queens are 2 years old and the three Rhode Island Reds are almost 6 years old. I started out with 12 CQ's and I'm down to 6 in just 2 years. I started out with 9 RR's and after 6 years I still have 3. That tells me that the CQ's are not as sturdy as the RR's.
