Hi! Just got chicks a month ago, been wanting some for a long time and then all of sudden they landed on my lap (pun intended). Way more than I was expecting too unfortunately, not by my choice. So I'm devouring information trying to keep up and give them their best lives. I have 20 chicks not positive on the breeds (possible black Australorps) and sex so I'm here to get some help on that since I have to thin my flock so I don't end up with overcrowding. So far it's been pretty lovely taking care and seeing these little creatures scamper about and explore.
