Been getting 4-5 eggs a day now.



Have a great week!


Nice to see ya back.

Hello, Washingtonians!  I'm a newbie that's so new I don't even have chickens yet!  We bought our own home this past summer, and our realtor knew one of our "must-haves" was that the property had to be chicken-legal!  We'll be planning our coop and gathering all the free lumber we can over the winter (there's a pile of 2x4's and 4x4's under the porch and a role of 2x4 wire mesh out in the back 40).  Then, we'll buy our chickies in the spring...May, probably.  I appreciate BYC and all the information I've gleaned here.  Look forward to learning more from you all.

--Nikki, from Eatonville, WA

Adoptive mom to 3 cats, 1 rabbit, and a 9 year old human boy, and bio mom to a 5 year old girl. 

Mother hen to 1 buff orpington, 1 buckeye, 1 silver laced wyandotte, 1 barred rock, 1 light brahma, and 2 easter eggers.

Our cardigan welsh corgi, Maddie, is sweet, but is currently in the doghouse for unnecessary roughness with the chickens!

 

You can't scare me!  I teach 6th grade!
