How Many Chickens Do You Have in Your Flock?

[pipdzipdnreadytogo]

My big, mixed flock is sitting at 44 chickens right now
Breeding pens for my silkied Cochins are at 3, 4, and 5 birds respectively, at least for the moment
I have two bachelor groups of 3 and 4 roosters respectively, but two of those roosters are being sold out of one group
Two additional roosters in individual pens
Lastly is a rooster who is penned with my only duck to keep her company
Oh, and 12 chicks, 8 more on the way so far, but not all of those will be kept

Not counting the roosters being sold or the chicks out of whom I don't yet know which will be kept and which not, that puts me at 64 chickens and one duck.

Editing, oh, yes, and a ton of different breeds. Cochins, OEGBs, Dorkings, Plymouth Rocks, Easter-eggers, Silkies, Marans, some mixes, and various other breeds of which I've only got one individual.

Editing again because I can't count

We had 70+/- in February but I did a purge in April and converted all the older hens to either stewbirds or dog food, depending on the quality of the carcass. We have about 35 now and it's a happy number for my wife. My happy number would be closer to 20-25.

We're also moving from a very mixed flock of Ameraucanas, Marans, their offspring, and a few other odds and ends to a flock of Rhode Island Red hens and Bresse hens with two Bresse roosters over them. At this point, I have a gorgeous Bresse rooster and three beautiful hens separated in a breeding pen, and a lesser quality Bresse rooster and a RIR rooster over the rest of the flock.
