Hi, all! I'm new to keeping chickens. Got my first lil babies in April. Planned to just have 6, but kept going to the feed store and couldn't resist the cuteness. I have 16 ladies:
3 Golden Sexlinks
3 Silver Laced Wyandotte's
1 Barred Rock
2 Rhode Island Reds
All of the above have been laying since August.
1 Cream Legbar
2 Barnevelder's
1 Salmon Favorelles
2 Blue Copper Marans
1 Lavender Orpington
These girls aren't laying yet, but I have one Blue Copper Marans squatting for 3 days, so hopefully soon!
My girls have a 4x8 coop with 4 nest boxes and a 20x8 run. I open the run gate around noon each day and they free range until they're back in the coop for the night. I have no rooster, but my girls are under the watchful eye of my 5 month old Doberman, Georgia.
I joined to talk "chicken" with other chicken lovers and maybe get some answers that I haven't found after months of scouring the internet.
