New to backyard chickens

[Chicmama5]

Hi. I have 19 chickens. 2 buff orpington hens. Super sweet girls. 2 ISA brown hens. Good layers. I have had chickens for 4 years. I recently added lavendar orphingtons , light sussex and coronation sussex to my flock. They are just 5 weeks old. I started my flock with Rhode Island Red but then when I rotated my flock I brought in new breeds. More family friendly breeds. Love the orphingtons.
