Saw a brown egg outside of chicken yard, yet another new location. Looks like I need to do some additional wing clipping and determine how to stop the escapes.

One of the Barred Rock hens didn't roost in the coop last night. She had escaped the yard during the day. A predator got her during the night.
Flock:
Ancona
Rhode Island Red
Americauna (may be a rooster)
October hatch
Columbian Wyandotte rooster (will be eaten soon)
3 Rhode Island Red
2 Americauna
4 Barred Rock
11 layers... 8 brown, 2 green, 1 white
Flock can be increased. Minimum order of chicks is 15. I'm thinking 2 Americauna, 3 Buff Orpingtons, 10 meat birds.
That would put laying flock at end of year:
1 white layer (1+ years)
11 brown layers (8 1+, 3 pullets)
4 green layers (2 1+, 2 pullets)
If I get pullets from June 2 hatching they'd be laying during the solstice lull for the 1+ year olds.
