New to chicken raising...

post #1 of 12
Thread Starter 

Hello,

I'm Vanessa. I'm in good ol' Oregon.  this last spring I recently purchased 4 chickens and 2 ducks. My ducks just laid today for the first time, super excited about that! Anyhow,  I have learned a lot from reading posts on this site so, I decided to join!  I'm excited to learn more about my new adventure and meet some new people!

Helen: Daria, do you have to look at everything in such a negative light?

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?

Hi there!

We have 2 chickens and a duck and got our first chicken eggs this week! Turns out we have a drake so no duck eggs for us!! I am amazed at how exciting it is to open the box and fine a perfect egg inside!!
