    Hello from Yulee Florida.

    We are new to this forum and believe we have found a place where we might be able to get some of our questions answered. We have Barred Rock hens and a Barred Rock rooster that are wonderful egg producers so we decided to expand to some different varieties. We also have three goats, Momma...
