First Time Chicken Owner

[abonahoom]

I'm so very excited that I can finally say I'm a chicken owner. Purchased four over the weekend at a swap; buff orpington, silver laced orpington, blue laced wyandotte, mottled ameraucana. The blue laced is a female and I'm hoping, fingers crossed, that they will all be female. Now that I have four I might have to add a few more....something about chicken math I hear.
