What size flock do you have?

So what size flock are you running? Do you have more than one? any tips for management? any regrets, wishes, or future plans to expand or downsize?

I had 100+ last year, but I downsized to 35-40 as the feed price was getting a bit expensive

I have 5 coops so there was plenty of space for them lol

I’m planning on hatching probably too many this year though

I have a about 7 little flocks (breeding groups) D’Uccles, Brahma bantam, Japanese, OEGB, Silkie, rooster flock, and grow out flock. I do separate my colors and breeds when I breed so then I have even more flocks when I do that.
I’ve also got one medium sized standard flock and a large bantam mixed flock.

It’s easier to have the 5 gallon waters and 5 gallon bucket feeders.

I plan to down sized my mixed bantam flock, my rooster flock and my brown red mottled D’Uccles project (mainly getting rid of the hens I no longer need for the project).

I would like a add a small modern game bantam flock this year. And maybe silkied Cochin flock, bantam shamo/alsil flock and probably other bantam breeds in the future.
