(3) What breeds do you have?
*11 week old Blue Australorp- 1 roo, 1 pullet, 1 unknown (pullet )
*11 week old Silverlace Wyandotte-3 pullets
*13 week old Polish/silkie/easter egger barnyard mix-2 Roos
*13 week old Black Copper Maran- 2 pullets (I think )
*12 week old Polish Frizzle-1 unknown
*14 week old Black Copper/Cream Legbar mix- 2 pullets

Their personalities and beautiful eggs

Welcome to BackYard Chickens! Your Polish is adorable! She looks like a Tolbunt Polish to me. It might be helpful to post a thread in this section to get the experts' knowledge: What Breed Or Gender is This?

Thank you! I’ll post there! Thank you all for the warm welcomes <3
