New chicken mom of about 1 year from the PNW of the US. Been sort of playing it by ear with my first chickens and it’s been quite a ride so far! Started out with six “pullets” and ended up having three cockerels! I had to re-home one, as he and another were beating each other up too badly to stay together. My third cockerel is a little special; they’re both bantams, but he is a lot smaller, has a significant cross beak, and generally seems a bit...oblivious? to social rules. So, they get along ok together.
I have a white Cochin frizzle bantam cock who rules the roost (Little One), a Silkie bantam cock (Ducky), two Easter eggers hens (Bambi and Snicker Doodle), and, my top hen, a black copper Maran (Queenie, who we named before we knew she would be top hen
). Queenie went broody a few weeks ago and hatched three chicks! I am very excited for her and hope they all get raised safely. 
I was already coming to this site for so much info, so I figured I would join! Hello, everyone!
