Thread Starter 

Hello! I have been using this site a lot for research, and I have decided finally to join now that I finally got my chickens!  I just got my 9 chicks three days ago in the mail from Meyer Hatchery!  I ordered all hens (we shall see if they will all turn out that way!).  There is 1 Buff Orpington, 1 Dominique, 1 New Hampshire Red, 1 White Leghorn, 2 Speckled Sussex, 2 Easter Eggers, and 1 Welsummer.  I am so excited to watch them grow up and eventually get some beautiful eggs!  Im really looking forward to learning new things on this site and talking chicken!

 

Mother to 8 spoiled hens - 2 Easter Eggers, 1 Speckled Sussex, 1 Leghorn, 1 Buff Orpington, 1 New Hampshire Red, 1 Welsummer, and 1 Dominique! 

 

Also the slave of a Labrador Mix, a very friendly housecat, and 20 or so Mini Rex Rabbits.

Daria: Could you possibly be referring to the harsh light of reality?

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?
