To be honest, I really don't know exactly how many chicken we actually have here on the farm. I know there's about 50 in our free-ranging laying flock which is housed in two chicken houses outside. Then we have our birds housed in the barn.

There is a lot of wasted space in the barn but we do have four nice poultry runs housing some of the birds I have separated to keep their eggs pure for hatching purposes. Also, one run has some juvenile birds that are growing out.

The adult birds include bearded silkies, blue-laced red Wyandottes and Belgian bearded D'uccles. I am currently collecting eggs from all the adult pens to do one last hatch for the season.

I used to have lots and lots of chickens, different breeds. I loved Polish and other crested breeds, kept all the colors separated. A raccoon helped me downsize. I now just have a few chickens.
