Too many chickies in Northern Michigan

[Ann Perkhens]

Hi there! I’m a new chicken owner in northern Michigan. Our family of six just moved up here for my husbands job and our desire to live out of the city and homestead. We just got our first chicks, and I probably overdid it and ordered too many. The hatchery also sent extras, so we’re totaling at 16. We have black australorps, Plymouth rocks, sapphire rocks, and olive Eggers.
