My husband bought our first chickens (reds and leghorns) at the feed store last year. They used that method. I didn't know a lot about chickens at the time, but I thought it was nonsense. He asked for 5 hens and a rooster. We ended up with 6 hens.

would say that was pretty close. Looks like you got 5 classic pullets and one very roody little pullet.
