New mom to 6 pullets

post #1 of 13
Thread Starter 

This is our first time raising chicks.  Figured that I've raised 4 kids, many dogs and cats, so I could handle chickens too.  Our chicks are one week old today.  They have been with us for 4 days, we love every minute with them.  Their dad and the kids are busy constructing a hen house and run, it will be amazing.  I'll post pictures when we are all done.  Appreciate all the great advice offered on this site.

Hello!!!

 

Our chickens are our pets and we love them as we would love a dog or cat....  They wait for us at the back door every morning and love to come inside the house...   They jump in our laps and run like crazy to us..  Its the cutest thing.... Enjoy....

Welcome! Have fun raising chickens!

I am crazy about a lot of things. Chickens, reading, writing stories, and most importantly my King, Jesus. :D

Home of the world's cutest dachshund, one crazy blue heeler, two cats,
              one fat pony, and many (but not too many!) chickens

              Can anyone tell me, how many are too many chickens?
