Yorkshire Coop, my wife wants a Silky, for the fun of it. I want some hens that are not noisy and are good layers. I'm starting to look at different birds. I'm looking forward to spending time on this site reading and learning.
Very new to raising chickens, so I will be doing a lot of reading on this very informative site. We're looking at maybe 4 or 5 egg laying chickens. Not so much for the meat. I'm on an acre of fenced land so they have room to roam when we're outside. Just wanted to stop in and say Hi.
