First time owning chickens. I got them 3 months ago and they are 4 months old. I have 5 chickens. They are all barred rock. I also have 4 Dalmatians. Do they look healthy? They have maerks vaccine. Please let me know tips and things I should be watching out for

They look good! You'll know if they aren't well, they are usually reserved, fluffed up and sometimes not eating or drinking. They may even remove themselves from the flock or have other symptoms, similar to humans when they get sick.

Thanks for sharing pictures! I'll bet your Dalmations are cute, too. Welcome to BackYard Chickens!

Hiya, and welcome to BYC! Thanks for sharing pictures! They are beautiful and look great!

We have a Learning Center here and you'll see there's a whole forum on chicken illnesses and diseases if you want to learn more about them.
