I started over 2 years ago with 6 peeps. I am now the proud to be owned by 75+ chickens, I have silkies, cochins, barred rocks, red sex link, americana, golden lacedcochins, and 2 turkeys. I also have two house chickens, 3 cockatiels, a female golden retriever , and a 2 month old male border collie who is already herding the two chickens in the house. LOL My chicken keep me sane. We are raising two grandchildren. We live in the boondocks of Michigan, up north about 45 miles south of the bridge. Thought I had better start a Michigan topic!!! Gail
