Hello. I've been reading on the site for awhile now and finally decided to start an account. We are new to backyard chickens. We bought 16 chicks about 3 weeks ago. Sadly one of our Polish didn't make it past a week, but we currently have 6 Araucanas, 4 Barred Rock, 4 Bantums, and 1 Polish. My husband is hard at work building a coop into the open side of our barn while our babies are still in the brooder in our garage. My kids are in love with our chickens. I look forward to learning more here! This site has been such a great source of info for us as we have planned.Here they were when we first got them:
and Welcome To BYC! Pretty chicks! Sounds like you've put together a nice flock and should have a really colorful egg basket! Sorry about the Polish you lost.
Sorry to hear you lost one of your polish 
They can be a quirky breed I keep them myself. Great to hear your children are loving them it's so nice when you have children helping you raise them. Wishing you the very best of luck in the future with them. Be sure to ask any questions you may have, everyone here to help and very friendly.
