We live in central Fl.in our home we have my sweet chicken coop building husband, our 21 year old son,that visits the chickens when he wants a new girlfriend to say how sweet,our 18 year old daughter that graduates in a couple months and is always on the go,then there's the two little ones the ones that do all the hard work. Day is 11 and Drist is 8 they are the real chicken girls not just when they are cute but through the good the bad and the chicken poooo...on a little less than one acre we have 15 mature RIR we breed,a trio of dark Brahmas,Americanas,golden seabrights,white,black,buff,cochin bantams,frizzle,sizzle and silkies for fun.We started with one hen and after a year we got a rooster.We have ordered from a couple of hatcheries and have incubated.
