New to BYC and chickens

[mrsv10]

Hi everyone! My name is Heidi. We just bought our house in the country on 1 acre. I've had my chicks for almost 2 weeks. We are getting the coop ready this weekend. I have 12 reds hens. Atleast I think they are all hens. One is different from the rest. I'm not sure if it's a rooster or just a different a different breed. I've started doing some research on fodder but have no idea how much I'll need to feed them.
I look forward to learning so much from all of you!
