What breeds of chickens does everyone have?

My friend Denise aka Freebie lets me share her birds since I can't have any (live in city) she has the following:

Plymouth Barred Rock rooster
Plymouth Barred Rock hen
Buff Orpington Hen
Black Australorp Hen
Millie Fleur bantams hens-5
 
I'm trying to keep it simple and keep only one breed right now -- Araucanas!!!

Aw, thanks! I'd tell him you said that, but he has too high an opinion of himself as it is.

What a variety you have! I've no idea how you keep track of them all...
 
I have two large fowl hens - a black orpington called Molly and a lavender araucana called Lily. When I find one then there will be a welsummer hen coming to join us too

Rhode Island Reds... 22 hens and 1 very proud rooster... 34 chicks (hatched 3 weeks ago so I have no idea the sexes yet) from their eggs! I am thinking of getting some Auracana eggs from a local gal to hatch as well but DH is giving me the "have you lost your mind" look...........
