Hi! What breeds of chickens do you have? How many do you have, do you have any chicks, and have you ever hatched eggs? I have 2 speckled Sussex hens, 2 jersey giant hens, 2 olive egger hens, 1 silver laced Wyandotte hen, 1 Easter Egger hen, and 7 chicks that I hatched!

3 easter eggers (Ginkgo, Vanilla and Ginger), 3 lakeside eggers (Basil, Lavender and Chocolate Mint) and 1 buff Orpington (Juniper), all are 10 months old, brought as day old chicks from Meyer hatchery. Never hatched eggs, don't want to deal with excess roosters if I can avoid it
 
I mainly raise bantams. I do have a small standard flock. I’ve got a pair of Buff Brahma bantams, pair of Light Brahma bantams, pair of White Black Tailed Jap, pair of Brown Red Jap, pair of Fawn/Silver Duckwing OEGB, trio of lavender OEGB, pair of Millie Fleur OEGB, pair of Silver Ginger OEGB, quad of Brown Red Mottled D’Uccles, pair of Porcelain D’Uccles, quad of Millie Fleur D’Uccles, pair of Brown Red D’Uccles, pair of Silkied D’Uccles, and a mixed bantam flock of about 13, so roughly 45 bantams.

My standard flock consists on 2 buff laced polish, 2 naked neck Cornish crosses, 1 Speckled Sussex, 3 EE, 3 Naked necks, 2 frizzles, so 13 standards.

I do hatch chicks, currently I have a grow out flock, a hen with 7 chicks, a hen setting on eggs and I’ve got 6-7 eggs in the incubator due to hatch this Saturday. I will soon start my purebred breeding season, that’s when hatching will be crazy.
