It all started with 3 in 1977. Some other were added sometime but the next picture I have was of some we, well a chosen hen, was allowed to hatch in 1979--not all her eggs. Here are some of them in 1980. And another picture of probably all we had in 1984. Some stayed around through a move from VA to NC in 1985 till probably 1987/8. They were true free range chickens during the day and secured at night but we stopped raising chicks and eventually old age and roaming neighborhood dog/dogs finished them off. I'd like to have some again some day. I'm not sure the breed--I think multiple breeds but they were small. They didn't really cause any problems, they just hung around the edge of the woods behind us mostly scratching in the leaves--didn't wander off either stayed mostly in the back yard of our 1 acre lot. We had a couple roosters most of the time. One rooster was dominant and had most hens but the other had one or two hens that followed him around. Each rooster roosted with their hens on opposite sides of their little house which was divided in the middle with chicken wire.
