This year we bought a few new breeds of baby chicks. You have seen the Red Ranger Broilers in previous posts, but we have also purchased 4 Easter Eggers and 4 Red Shoulder Yokohamas. The Red Shoulder Yokohamas are a somewhat rare breed for backyard chickens because they are smaller, often go broody, and need more space, making them a better option for a free-range environment. Here are my Yokohamas at about 8 weeks old. They are so small compared to my other chickens. I can't wait to see how small their eggs are when they start laying.
