    Advice for a 1st time chicken moma and her new chicks??

    I have son on the spectrum also. The school people think maybe it is Aspergers but my friend who has 2 boys with it thinks it is some sort of PDD. I have an appointment for further testing. My son really, really loves our chickens and ducks. He cuddles them everyday.

    Strictly pet chickens! Anyone??

    Ours are backyard pets and hopefully they will live a good long life. We couldn't kill or eat them as they all have names but I would not hesitate to euthanize for disease or severe injury.
