Hello everyone! I'm Dayne, I'm about a month or two lurker, but new member! I just got my first chicks about three weeks ago. I'm excited to see them grow. We aren't going into it specifically for eggs or meat, but mostly as pets with the added bonus of eggs! No meat birds here.
We have 13 now, I don't have any recent pictures except for one, but I can tell you what birds we have!
(Blue Gold pictured above!)
4 Brahmas (Blue Gold Partridge girl named Mei, Splash rooster named Rooster Cogburn. They're siblings. Then newer additions 2 light brahma girls who are unnamed cause we can't tell em apart.)
2 Araucanas (2 girls, named Zarya and Charlie)
2 Silkies (both unknown sex, one buff named Oscar and the other black unnamed)
1 Salmon Faverolle (girl, named Mochi)
1 Buff Brahma Bantam (unknown sex, named Shiloh)
1 Japanese Bantam (unknown sex, named Scratch. They like to obsessively peck the side of their brooder.)
1 Mille Fleur Bantam (unknown sex, named Millie.)
1 Sebright Bantam (unknown sex, unnamed)
My personal favorites are the blue gold partridge brahma and the salmon faverolle. Those 2 + the araucana (zarya) and the buff brahma bantam (shiloh) are my personal chicks! the others are split up among my mom and my sister.
Anyway, it's great to be here! : )
