Hi there! So about two years ago my local animal shelter had an adult RIR Rooster and after going unclaimed I gave in and adopted him. We bought a house and 5 acres and the previous owner did the chicken thing so we had a good size chicken coop that housed just spiders, weeds and mice at the time so he was all set. And of course after a couple months I thought he needed a friend so off to the flea market we went and picked up two hens. Then a friend called with a sob story from a friend of his and we ended up with a few more hens. And these calls continued and now here I am, two years later having built two more chicken coops and chickens coming out the woodwork! Lol Aside from "they lay good eggs", I can't tell you much more. Help!!
I know I have a Sexlink rooster and about 6 of them are RIR. I'm pretty sure I may have a couple Brahma's or are they Spotted Sussex? What are the white ones with no comb? I was told Orphington but aren't they more of a golden bird? And I got a couple that I was told were Barred Rock but when I google pic's it brings up black and white birds where these are more red.
I hopefully got a few pics attached. Any suggestions would be great!!
