My girls and their coop

I go back to last October when I got my first batch of chickens only one day old and needing so much to stay alive. We raised eight named them all and of the batch I got one girl, the only one named a boys name. Fred became a lone chicken so off I went and decided to get her a flock. In March, I brought home 3 more and so far so good I have all girls. We introduced them slowly and Fred seem to except them as hers. This is good! The new girls names are Princess fluff butt, Stevie and Pooter. I chose all heavy breeds and layers. So as of now we have one New Hampshire red, two Buff orphingtons and one light brahma. I love having chickens, Fred has now started laying and is giving one egg a day. What a comical group they are together.
