Hi I'm Kelly! I have had chickens since I was in sixth grade and am currently in my second year of college. I currently have 20 chickens and 9 ducks. I am so excited to join here and will probably be having plenty of questions!

Welcome to BYC! Just post whatever questions you have on the forum and I'm sure you'll get lots of replies. What kind of chickens do you have?

Thank you! I have 4 Silkies, 5 Barred Rocks, 4 Rhode Island Reds, 5 Bantams, 1 Araucana, and 1 rooster that was a gift. I'm not quite sure what he is.

That's a nice mixed flock that you have. If you post a photo of the "gift" rooster, maybe we can ID the breed for you.

Hi, Kelly, welcome to BYC.

This is the best picture I have of him. My neighbor bought him for my 13th birthday.

I think that your rooster is a beautiful crossbred.

Thank you! That was what I was thinking but I wasn't quite sure. I don't know what many of the breeds look like besides what I have currently. I'm just not what breeds he is.
