Hi. I'm in Lexington and we are new to raising chickens. My daughter was given 2 chickens that her school hatched. We are learning all we can about raising chickens because she wants them to be pets.

and welcome to the KY thread!

You've certainly come to the right place to learn.

My closest town is Owensboro, but I am in Hancock Cty. I have 14 Welsummers, just put 5 more eggs in the bator, because I need another male r 2. I picked up some Svant Hona eggs from KYTinpusher yesterday. I have a couple of sweet old black sexlinks and a Serama Roo. Having a new coop 8 X 16 built as soon as greenhouse is finished. Can hardly wait for more room.

Welcome, I am in Hancock county, regulations vary if you are in a city or county. Go to your county extension and they should be able to answer all your questions.
