I'm not new to chickens, but I am new to the forum. I'm on a few Facebook groups, but wanted to get more insight than the locals.
Right now we have a (surprise) rooster - Hawkeye, a silkie hen - Mulan, 2 polish pullets - Polly and Wiley, a barred rock pullet - Bee, an easter egger pullet - Pepper, a 4 month old sizzle too - Ozzie, and two mystery mutts that are about 3 months old. We actually do have backyard chickens. We live in the city, with a big backyard where the chickens run free pretty much always. Since we have the accidental roosters I decided to take up a friend on the offer of borrowing her incubator and was given a dozen eggs and collected a dozen of our own. I was a nervous wreck the first few days they were in the incubator! Now I'm resigned to them maybe not hatching. Still hoping someone will just go broody for me. Would be so much easier...
Thanks for having me y'all!
