If any of you remember me, I hatched the duck about a year ago in a bucket under a heat pad. Sunny (The duck) is doing great in my suburban backyard. She would lay an occasional egg every month or so, they were really good and 1 egg a month just wasn't enough for me. So I looked into chickens! They seemed interesting in online videos, stupid in a way, but it made them more amusing. So I thought, why not? My local feed store where I buy the duck feed from had just got a shipment of 2 day old chickens in a week after I looked into them. At the time I wasn't going to get any, just another routine trip for some duck feed. Then they caught my eye, little chicks! I ended up getting 5 of them. That was on the 22nd of Feb, 3 days before my B-day. They are huge now, weighing aorund 3-4 pounds but not full grown yet. They should lay soon though. :P

Breeds are 3 Rhode island reds. And 2 Easter Eggers/ (The EEs should lay colored eggs, blue or green)
