I'm new to owning chickens. We bought 7 chicks from the hardware store here, 2 barred rocks, 2 buff orpingtons and 3 araucanas. We are building our chicken coop, but have been delayed by the snow. I'm hoping to get the chicks into their new home in 2 weeks or less. The chicks are 4.5 weeks old now and fast outgrowing the brooder! I'm thinking that 2 of my chicks are cockerels when they were all supposed to be hens. I'm going to post pics in the forum and see what people think, because I'm not absolutely sure. I really hope I'm wrong.
I'm super excited about having chickens! Yay!

My chickees when I first got them.
