Thanks everybody! :)
Liz—When we moved here my in-laws drove us through Fair Oaks. I'd never seen chickens running free before. I knew this was the place for us, ha ha. Bookmarking that thread!

The chicks are growing already, eating a lot, pooping constantly. Ohh, the poop. Our compost is going to be amazing! I gave them a big worm to play with and Patsy gobbled it down before I could blink. I feel like we got cute little machines that turn food into poop, much like the kids.

My guess as of now is that Eddy is a roo, the rest hens. I know from reading BYC though that I will probably be hilariously wrong. S/he's the only one with a spur though, he's bigger, more flighty, squawky, seems to try corralling and warning the others more. I mostly just have a feeling about them. We'll see in a few months I guess.
