    Golden sex links - is one a ROO?

    We took him back to the feed store where we got all 10 of our chicks and they gave us a "teenage" hen in return. They had no more Golden Sex links, so we got a New Hampshire Red and she is hilariously friendly. Loves to sit on our laps, perch on our shoulder etc. The other day she perched on...

    Just starting out!

    We are about to start our little "farm" with 10 chicks, and will add two female African pygmy goat kids in a month or two. My father did the same 25 years ago, including breeding his goats several times, and is helping us get started. Debating the chicken breed to get started. We want them to...
