How many chickens do you own?

Lets see:

6 RIR hens
2 BR roos (1 has got to go!)
6 EE teenagers (2 we know are roos)
2 Delaware teens
3 BR teens (1 we know is a roo)
3 RIR teens (1 we know is a roo)
and last but not least 7 baby BR/RIR chickies. So a grand total of 29 at the moment.
 
I started with 6 1-day old chicks that I got this past Sunday. The little silkie died so I'm down to 5 chicks. BUT! I really wanted a silkie and the one that died was the only one of the bunch so I told the BF that I must order some! So I'll be placing an order tomorrow from Ideal that will be as follows:

10 Assorted Feather Legged Bantums (should include silkies, cochins, brahmas, d'uccles, etc)
3 Assorted Silkies (all colors, this is just to make sure I do get some in case the assortment above happens to not have any)
2 Fawn Red Old English Bantums (BF likes the roosters so I'm hoping one of the two will be a rooster. I heard they're real territorial so I definately didn't want more than two just in case they're all roo's. lol)

So including the 5 I already have I will have 20 chicks total.
