Hi everyone!
My boyfriend and I got chickens late summer 2017. We started with three and now have a total of 15! 14 hens and one awesome rooster. We have gathered them from different sellers (isolating them for a few weeks before introducing them). We have all different kinds of breeds. The rooster is a silver ameraucana the hens are Easter eggers, Rhode island reds, Plymouth barred rock, lavender orpington, ameraucana, silky/easter egger cross, red laced wyandottes, wyandotte/australorp cross and one mystery breed that is some kinda cross that I haven't figured out yet. I found out about this website by looking up some information when I decided to medicate my chickens for MG (last fall) and for some deworming information. My boyfriend and I are interested in possibly incubating this year so I'm eager to get information on the best way to do that as well as just get more information from more experienced chicken owners to make our flock the best it can be.

I just got some silkies/ Easter Egger cross. Could you post a picture of them I'm interested to see what the look like as big ol'hens!! If it's not too much work, thank you!
