What breeds have you got?

That lavender bantam is adorable!

We don't have any bantams until we pick up our silkies next week. Of our big girls, we focus on lavender orpingtons and cream legbars. But our flock also includes 4 white leghorns, 3 australorps, 3 black copper marans, 2 barnevelders, 2 golden laced wyandottes, a spoiled splash orpington and an olive egger. They're an eclectic bunch.

Here's a few photos.

😂 Thank you! Your hens are truly gorgeous and look like trouble to be taken are of!
 
I have a few different breeds. My older chicks are 16wks. 3 barred rock, 3 black australorp, 3 black sex link, and one California white.

This is my first time raising chickens. I may have gone a little over board🙈
I'm a first timer too, and have 12 17-18 week olds and 8 10 week old chicks combined to a flock of 20. Just a little overboard. That chicken math gets you quick.
 
I have a nice, eclectic mix of breeds in two flocks. Part of the fun of chicken keeping for me is having such diverse breeds.
Flock one:
Silkies x3,, including a Roo
Hyline
Araucana
Maran
Bantam Australorp
Dorking

Flock two:
Cochin (Large)
Salmon Faverolles x2
Barbu D'Uccle x2
Barbu D'Anver x1
Pekin (Cochin) Bantams x3
Bantam Orpington
Polish Cockerel- a late bloomer I kept as I thought he was a girl. Am trying to re-home him because I'm worried about my little bantams when he is older
 
I have a few light Brahmas and a whole slew of mutts. Believe me when I tell you I have quite the variety. I love breeding the Brahmas with the mutts. They produce some beautiful and sometimes strange looking chickens.
