As a first time chicken owner, I can barely contain my excitement to bring home the newest additions to what is quickly becoming our mini-farm!
My fiancé is not nearly as 'animal-crazy' as I am - but he is 100% on board for fulfilling my lifelong dream of owning a full-scale farm. I already have a horse, dog and two cats... so with the addition of four chicks next week, we're moving slowly in the right direction. We hope to buy a sizeable property and truly expand our hobby farm in the next 2-5 years.
In the meantime, we are fortunate to own a home in the country with about an acre of land that is surrounded with beautiful, mature trees with a stream on the edge, and a peaceful community that supports all of the farming/agricultural activities that go on here.
So on that note - let the adventure begin!
Stay tuned for updates from the PEIsland Chicks that will be arriving July 8, 2014!
