Yay! What breeds are they? Looks like you've got quite an assortment there.
Oh and are you using a water bottle for a waterer?

They're all mixed up. I'm not really familiar with breeds. My dad has a small hen that's gray and had a Rhode Island or new hamp red rooster in there then swapped the rooster for a game rooster. My brother has 6 hens that are all different breeds. He put my dad's red rooster in with them when my dad got the game rooster. I have a black orp and a sex link hen and a RIR rooster. I collected eggs from all 3 hen houses, so yeah...it's a mix! Haha!

Yes the waterer is a small ice cream bowl with a water bottle attached. One of my other posts tells how I made it.

Here's a couple videos of the chicks.
