Currently have 15, most I've ever had at one time is 40. Hatching more chicks sometime soon.

Mutts, Seramas, Wyandottes, Ameraucana, Buckeye, Cochin B, Speckled Sussex, and White Rock.

Wyandottes.

Silver Penciled Wyandottes.

Draco, Pedro, Chalupa, "Buddy", Freckles, and Georgia to name a few.

They range for 4-12 hours a day depending on the day or week. Right now they are locked up so the garden can establish.

Q3: what is your favorite breed you own?
Delawares, Delawares, Delawares. They are so sweet! They're such darling little chicks, they run up to me as soon as I'm in sight, and are desperate to jump up and sit on my hands. I can't get over how friendly they are.

They're in a coop for now, indoors. Getting ready to move everyone outside to a chicken tractor - we also have a barn we're hoping to utilize!
