I have had 9 hens and 1 rooster for a year. I have a broody hen sitting on 17 eggs due to hatch by April 20 or 21. This is my first hatching and I am hoping that the advice I have been reading for the last year proves very helpful. The information is great!!!

My chickens are clean, thanks to their daily dust baths, don't smell, don't need bathed (usually unless they get mites/lice) don't smell at all, and make almost no noise at all (except when my kids play with them

I am surprised that only a few people think I am crazy for having my chickens.
