I started by small backyard chicken form last March. I started out with 3 hens and now I have 15 hens and 5 roosters. I am just enjoying myself. It will be getting hit soon. What to you all do about snakes in the summer?

Hello and welcome to BYC! Glad you joined.
I don't have any species of snakes here that the chickens have to worry about. The snakes worry about the chickens. I've rescued many snakes from becoming chicken keep away snacks.
You've got quite a lot of boys for the number of hens. What do the girls backs and heads look like and how much fighting happens amongst the boys?
