Official BYC Poll: How many chickens do you have?

[jhammett]

I have 20 that hatched February 24-26. 9 weeks old. I will be rehomeing or repurposing the roos as soon as I can confidently ID them. BUt want to maintain about 30-40 hens.

We have 12 chickens in all but 6 are still chicks. Here is a pic of one of my favorites.

I have 4 chickens who were all born at the end of April. I am posting this on their estimated birthday. They are all different breeds.

currently I have between 30 and 40 chickens. I just got 8 buff Orpington and 8 RIR pullets in Monday! They are so adorable, you just want to snuggle up to them and kiss them repeatedly.! I also have like 10 RIR chicks that I hatched out myself but they're not as young as the ones I just got in.

who would believe chickens could be so much fun. And that they would all be named!

At the mo I have 20. 12 RIRs, 2 white Leghorns, 2 black Ameruacanas and 4 wheaten ameruacanas. I will be rehoming any roos and I'm working with one of the black ameruacanas as she has cross beak.... seems like she will make it but I'm not certain. The RIRs and WLs are about 7 or 8 weeks old and the Ameruacanas are 3 weeks behind them.
