(1) Are you new to chickens / when did you first get chickens?
Yes, I have had chickens since June this year.
(2) How many chickens do you have right now?
I have 3 mature hens and 1 rooster. 3 adolescent hens and an adolescent rooster. Also have 6 chicks hatched august 2.
(3) What breeds do you have?
I adopted them so I am not 100% certain. I believe I have an Easter egger rooster. I’m thinking the mature hens are Isa brown. The adolescents are 3 light Brahma and 1 black maren. The chicks are a cross between my rooster and one of my mature hens.
(7) Bonus: How did you find BYC, how long have you known about BYC, and what made you finally join our awesome community?
I found BYC through a google search about how to treat young chicks for crop impaction. Turns out the chicks are actually okay and not impacted. Just eating like pigs. Their crops were so full it looked painful. I am here to gather information mostly and share my side of this cool interesting hobby-thanks!
