New member intro

[Clare28]

Hi! I live in central NJ and just got 6 hens that look to be Rhode island reds but the person who got them for me didn’t know. I haven’t had chickens since I was a kid. My parents had coops and never let them forage so I am looking forward to this new approach. I have one child and a dog who is fascinated with our new family members. I am interested in cultivating birds who can be handled easily.
