Hello From Jax, FL!

X3, it looks like the one bird is your only pullet. It sounds like you won't be able to return/ exchange them? To place them otherwise, you might want to post on your state thread for for the best chance of finding them local homes https://www.backyardchickens.com/t/305793/florida-always-sunny-side-up Also you can post Ads in the BST forum after you have 20 posts, there is a section for animals in need of free rehoming also if you decide to go that way. https://www.backyardchickens.com/t/250783/buy-sell-trade-rules-must-read-agree-to-participate-in-bst You might also try places like your local Craigslist, Farm Store (bulletin board or some also take birds), local 4-H club if someone wants a project bird etc. RIR are a popular breed which is good, unfortunately there isn't much of a market for roosters in general, and most will go for meat.

Thanks everyone! I actually somehow found the person that I bout them from and they said if they start to grow spurs or crow then they will replace with hens or give my money back so that's good. In the mean time I guess I'm just waiting. Now on to figuring out what to put in my coop to make it easier to clean. I'll be posting in the appropriate thread space for that though. No one has heard of River sand around here.

If you can't find river sand, fine pea gravel will work just as well.
 
Well I have some updates. I got rid of 2 of the roosters by giving them back to the guy who sold them to me and he was more than happy to take them off my hands and return my money. He ten directed me to someone that gave me a nice RIR and a Bantam. Both Layers. The 2 originals aren't laying yet so I am anxiously awaiting that (I may still have 1 Roo but I will find that out in time I think). I then added dividers to the nesting box, added a PVC feeder and plumbed a 5 gallon bucket to some poultry nipples so that I don't need to water them 3 times a day. Here are some updated photos and thank you all for the help provided early on!







This is the one I am unsure of still.
