hey! We’re new chicken owners for almost 4 weeks, we have 17 chickens (lost one the first week) not sure on all breeds as we did a mix from McMurray but we know 3 are favorelles, 3 are silver gray dorkings and I believe a least 1 buttercup, I think 1 cuckoo Maran , we added 2 whiting true blues and have no clue which ones those are yet. Still learning and google keeps bringing me here so I figured an account was obviously needed to continue the research. We’re in Florida so it’s been interesting with rain and heat to figure out some stuff but they are thriving and we love every one!!!!
