    Found BYC in Helmand, Afghanistan

    Quote: As much as I would like to bring my chickens home with me I won't be able to. Norfolk, Va doesn't allow chickens. They will have to be passed off to the next group that relieves us. Hopefully someone else likes chickens in the next group.

    Hello from Afghanistan!

    So I'm out here with the Navy in the middle of the dessert (if that makes any sence) and have had the opportunity to start a small flock.

    Afghani Chickens

    Thanks for everyones input. Here's a pic I took today of Annie. She is currently sitting on 6 eggs. I was able to get one out only getting pecked twice and its fertile. So in 1-2 weeks hopefully I'll have some chicks to add to my small Afghani flock.
