Hi I'm new here and also a first time chicken mom. I have 6 4 week chicks and 4 17 week pullets that could start laying any time. My brother had fair chickens (meat chickens) when I was growing up so had chickens as a child but only one year and I didn't do much with them. We gave Easter Eggers, a Rhode island red, barred plymouth rock, sapphire gems, black australorp, and one half ameraucana half cochin.
 
:welcome I’d love to see a picture of your Ameraucana/cochin!

Here is my half and half and the Easter egger, black australorp, and the starlight green egger I forgot to list. The 6 chicks never stand still so can't get good photos of them. The big ones are in a temporary pen today while we finish up the run for the big chicken coop and we have been having rain all week so they have been in the garage in a large dog crate at night.
