Greetings and salutations from central Virginia! I have been dealing with chickens since 2019 when I started dating my girlfriend (now wife). After two flocks, she was down to her last Bardrock when I got her two each of Black Australorps, Rhode Island and New Hamphire Reds, and Buff Orpingtons. Out of that flock, we lost two Buff Orpingtons (one to cat and one to stress), a Black Australorp (fox at new house), a Rhode Island Red (she looked like an eagle and we called her America, but her sisters pecked her to death). We had five left over and earlier this year we (I) decided to add 10 Buff Orpingtons and five Lavenders. We had stopped at Tractor Supply when they were having a bizarre and ended up with two Jubille Orpingtons for $30. We were told they were roosters, well, that is why I am here basically because I believe they are hens! If I am to have 22 hens, I am going to be in the market for a rooster anywhere from 7mos to 13mos.
