Official BYC Poll: How Many Chickens Do You Have + How Many Chickens On BYC?

[uncertainty]

21470 + 25 = 21495

My first flock of Red Sussex Cross, straight run, so I am not sure how many boys are in the group yet. We are at day 9 and they are getting BIG.

 

[Frindizzle]

21463 - 5 + 12 = 21470

Since I last posted we lost 5 hens to hawks.

And we have acquired 12 additional hens/pullets. We have built two 50' x 50' covered runs to keep everyone safe. I do miss them free ranging though.

The new pullets/hens are:

5 buff orpington
2 ideal
2 easter eggers
1 production red
1 amberlink
1 unknown (was sold as NHR but it clearly is not NHR, very pretty little thing though)

Sorry for your losses - have you checked out the Pests/Predators section of BYC? Maybe some people can help you there
