    Hello

    Hello, my name is Ryan and recently I bought 15 chicks (5 production reds, 5 sapphire, splashes, and 5 California whites). Tragically I’ve lost 3 of the whites, 2 as chicks and 1 a few weeks ago. All my bird are 18-20 weeks old. I’m here to connect with other owners for advice on chickens.
