Novice chicken mama!

[garden chick]

Hi I'm Jaime and I just got my baby chicks a week ago, and this is my first time raising chickens, I am beyond thrilled! I really love these little birds! I have a Barred Rock, a Buff Orpington, an Ameraucana, a Rhode Island Red, and a Light Brahma. Since I got them on the feed stores yearly "chick day" it was a zoo and I couldn't tell you which chick is which breed! Hopefully we will start to recognize as they get older.

Hi and welcome to BYC from northern Michigan

I think --
Ruby - RIR
Charlotte - Barred Rock
Snowball - Brahma
Goldie - Buff Orp
Messy - actually an Easter Egger, a mixed breed that may lay a blue egg (sometimes called Ams by hatcheries, but not purebreds).

Have fun!
