    Just some advice from experience... read up on the quarantine of new stock (minimum 30 days symptom free). Also, beware of chicken wire. It will keep chickens in but does not keep predators out. Snakes and mice can fit through to eat eggs and chicks and larger predators like rats, opossum, skunk, weasels, raccoons, fox, and coyote can chew and break through it.

    That guy with the cap was trying to over price you because your a lady. He’s a piece of crap because that guy walked up he told him 40 and saw you walk up so he played it off n said he’d give you a deal he’s pathetic.

    You have too many roosters. 1 rooster= 10 hens. Seems very expensive for a rooster. Most people will give you roosters just for providing them a good home.

    Buying birds from a place like that probably isn't the best place to start. People selling are usually getting rid of stock they don't want, for whatever reason. They're older, not laying, not as healthy as the rest of the flock. They're culling their own flocks, basically. Roosters are always easy to come by, and you only need one. Don't feel bad, I started out the exact same way. I eventually had a broody hen and started eggs under her. Trust me, before you know it, if you let them keep sitting, you'll be up to your neck in chickens. They breed like rats. One hen can hatch out a dozen eggs in a month, and when they're a couple of months old, she can do it again. Do the math. Just start out with the best stock you can find.

    Doesn't look like you quarantine them for a while.
