Thanks! They keep us moving and laughing.

The chicken math adds up quick. Once we pick up the silkies we'll be at 50. I originally said I wanted 20-30. Oops.

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

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.

aww bet they do
