Hi,
Iwas successful with the following find command for deleting the .log files older than 30 days and then I changed the ls to rm -f and removed them successfully.
My question now is is there a way to incoorporate in this code a way to count the number of the output files when I do the find ls command? I have found several commands but they appear to be only for counting the files in a directory. 

My code follows:
find '/home/faserv/hrprod/cron/logs' -name '*.log' -type f -mtime +30 -exec ls {} \;

If you substitute "wc -l" for the "ls" command that will give you a word count per line, in other words it will count the number of file names printed into the pipeline.
