I decided to update our photos of them today and they are below.
The breeds we have living outside and their numbers are:
1 Cuckoo Maran
2 Buff Orpington
1 Delaware
3 Ameraucana mutts (EEs)
2 Barred Plymouth Rocks
2 Rhode Island Reds
The shed and current run:
Out of focus Ameraucana covered with blu-kote and pine tar (pecking victim, recovering well):
The chickens investigating 5 week old Wyandotte newcomers:
One of the RIRs with Peepers on:
Our Shih-Tzu girl (who's been herding them around the yard and back into the shed!!!) sniffing the Barred Rocks bottom:
Formerly a "mystery" chick that took an extra 3-4 weeks to even BEGIN to get feathers that we now know is an Ameraucana mutt and likely a cockerel judging by the comb...:
Delaware....who is a real drama queen. She screams bloody murder if she is separated from the flock outside, gets lost, spooked, or stuck on the other side of the fence begging for us to pick her up...which usually she seldom lets us do:
Various (the first one is another Ameraucana mutt with pine tar on it, was also pecked before....healing up though):
Our dog herding them, and the last one she's making sure they don't leave the shed

And a buff orpington to end my post:
Let me know what you all think,
