So cute!  How many chickens do have? Looks like a great flock!

Thanks! We sure do love having them! I am not sure how many we have at the moment, I need to do a new headcount! Lol Lets see... Adult birds 1-4 years old, we have 33 hens, 3 roosters.
Pullets/cockerels... there are 12 mixed in with the main flock, then we have 10 more in a separate pen, and now the 4 new chicks. So 62 total right now.
 
The egg that I thought had twins in it hatched and there are no twins :/ you guys all said it looked like there were twins too...
the other egg will hopefully be hatched when I get home from school

Maybe it was just an active dancing chick!

:cd. At least you got one healthy one instead of two duds.
