New chicken mom from Northern Michigan

[Janhill]

Hello!
I am a first time chicken mom from Harbor Springs Michigan. I have 11 new chicks, various ages. I have Rhode Island Reds, Barred Rock, white Rock, Buff Orpingtons, Polish and Mottled Houdan. I really wanted the Polish ones but unfortunately 3 of them have passed this week and 1 was expired when it arrived . It has been so hard trying to nurse them not having any experience so I’m glad I found this group. If there are any members in northern Michigan I would love to have local chicken friends!
Thanks,
