Been a While but I'm Back

[CTChickenMom]

I started here 11 years ago and for a few years, was pretty regular. I post on occasion on FB but I haven't been here specifically, in probably 4-5 years. I haven't added to my flock in about 5-6 years and as I write this, I'm adjusting the humidity on my incubator to set a batch of 24 mixed breed eggs. With t

he current state of world affairs, I will be raising roosters for freezer camp because the food supply right now seems unstable at best. I have one hen left from my original batch in 2009, an EE named Muffin. The other 4, 3 hens and a roo, were from my last addition and their egg laying has slowed considerably. The roo, Walker is a handsome boy, and he's very respectful of me. Time to add more.

Welcome to Backyard Chickens - do you intend to get some younger layers?

Haven't gotten out to the grocery store in awhile, I have eaten so many eggs I think I am going to turn into a hen at any moment.

Welcome back! I had been away from BYC a few years myself, just busy with other things, it's been soothing to my soul to have returned.

Yes, you did penny, and look at how many likes you have since then - we really like & respect you.

Hello and welcome to BYC! Glad you joined.
An 11 year old EE is quite impressive.
Good luck with your hatch.
Do you have a grow out pen for the boys when they start getting obnoxious and can't stay in the flock any longer?
