I usually have 4 hens in my backyard flock. However, one of my oldest hens recently died so I have two new chicks in the brooder. So if all goes well, I'll have 5 hens.
 
Frank- Bantam black Sumatra mix(hen)
Nancy- Plymouth Rock(cockrel)
Latte'- Banny chick(local feed store)
Chi- Banny chick(feed store)
Caramel- red(hen)
Cinnimon -red (hen)
Porky- the pigeon
 
Yikes, we're in the 4% minority of 101+...... But, honestly, it SOUNDS much worse than it really is... Besides, if there is someone new to rescue, how can we refuse...

I love that area!!!
I am sure we will have more than my hubby expected because I already ordered 4 more to come in October, and I really want a few Wyandottes!!!! We purchased some red broilers for meat, and some Jersey Giants for meat....but if they are hens I don't know if I would want to get rid of them!!!!! So happy our neighbors are nice!!!
We live in Cullaby Lake..are you familiar with that area?
Did I miss what kind of chickens you have?
