Hey  I'm on the jersey shore  right by long beach island  People look at me funny when my girls are in the front yard, some people don't even know what they are.  That's really sad!!   


Ever take a chicken to the beach? It's quite a site. lol

I'm in Jersey!!!  I'm in North Plainfield--at the crux of Somerset, Union and Middlesex counties (seriously, we touch every one of them).  It's about an hour outside of NYC by bus/train.

We actually have chickens here and there because alot of the latino immigrants keep them.  So people around here know what chickens ARE, but they find it odd that I'm not a latino, don't live in a high latino area, and would consider keeping chickens.  old

Heather--mommy to 2 buff Orpingtons, 2 RIRs, 1 barred Rock and 3 Australorps, plus an explosive Latina infant daughter and 5yo son that adores her; 2 shelties (dogs) and a revolving door of goldfish that we can't manage to keep alive.

Southern NJ here, Camden county near Burlington County.

I raise goats but my mom has chickens.  We have some newly hatched chicks - there were 10 but one died sad

We have been to cowtown that is a cool rodeo.  We saw it on TV the other day!

Wow!  I didn't expect so many Jersey folks, particularly not those of you in Central & Norther Jersey!  I'm in NY now (upstate) but grew up in Red Bank (Monmouth County, 40 minute bike ride in from Sandy Hook)! smile  And though I'll probably never move home, will *always* be a Jersey Shore girl (minus the hair big_smile)... smile (see the .sig in fact big_smile)

*waves to all the Jersey Shore crowd*

I am a Jersey Shore Girl with a worrying problem living on 9 acres in Upstate NY with 1 amazing dh, 1 adorable (and adored) pain in the b^++, pig headed, brilliant, sweet 3 year old dd, 1 cat (Tiger), 1 dog (Maggie), 1 light brahma roo (Shiva) and his light brahma mix girlfriend (Parvati), 1 partridge silkie roo (Dr. Dusty Fluffenstein), and 16 mutt chicks (generally just known as The Collective).

I go to Stockton College right now, so I'm half north jersey, half south! LOL. It's definitely way different down here than up there. I'm still not particularly fond of NJ, but it is a neat place to live.

I'm in Medford NJ.  Glad to see I'm not the only one in NJ.  Sometimes it feels like it.

Hey New Jersey Friends...

Since you live in New Jersey...any of you know the famous Cy Hyde? He raises longtails. I have his BEST strain of birds right now, a TRIO. I have pictures of them on my website. wink

Hi. I'm in Mullica Hill, South Harrison Township, southern Gloucester county.
It's nice to see that others here in NJ have the chicken disease. wink
