Hello! :welcome

Sounds like you have Rhode Island Reds, a buff Orpington and some bantams. Could you maybe post some pictures of your birds? I'm sure someone could tell you your exact breeds if you're interested!

1) I've had them for 3 or 4 years

2) I have 5 but am expanding this week!!!!

3) I have a black Sussex crossed with a Chantaclair/Shantaclair and some Chantaclair/Shantaclair blue one brown chicken

4) I had a question about what breeds I should get for my flock expansion

5) My hobbies are gardening, riding horses and convincing my family to get another (bigger) dog. But nothing is wrong with our yorkie it's we want a dog the won't be eaten by eagles.

6) I have one amazing yorkie, I am part of a family of 4, we have 3 sheep that believe they should live in the house, some chickens and we are going to get 2 more sheep. We live on a twelve acre property which can get small after you build an amazingly beautiful pond but big pond and a small runway for a small plane. My horse barn have been put on hold for a bit. :(
 
I believe you are right on all 3!! Wow you must be an expert lol. This is the only picture I have of my chickens but I will take more. These are the Rhode Island Reds with the rooster.

OK I found some more pictures. The black hen in the second mated with that mini rooster in that same picture. (I no longer have him because he would always attack me when I went outside) She raised one rooster and 3 hens from that rooster who are all smaller than then the hen but bigger than the mini rooster and they all look black like the hen. Now I have a regular sized rooster but I think he's sick (he's in the first picture I posted earlier) I also started a thread to ask how to help him get better.
