How can you not love a face like that?

Chickens can be addicting. Its a great feeling to raise them from chicks into adulthood and then start getting your first eggs. Good luck in your adventure.

Is it frostbite?

Sounds like you are living the dream.

I started with two red stars from TSC as chicks. Most day they lay one egg each but from time to time one of them will lay two eggs a day. Bought three more red stars from Shook Poultry Sept. 1st and one of those has started to lay. Great layers and very friendly to boot.

Any day now tarrbaby. My Red Stars layed almost to the day of 28 weeks old.

Red Stars sound good for you. They have great personalities and should be just fine in the space you are talking about.

Hello, I have red stars myself. Great layers so far.

There are a lot of people here from NC. I am in Wilkes County.

Thanks for the warm welcome.

Just wanting to say hello. I am not new to BYC but I am a new member. I am in my 8th month of raising chickens. We always had them when I was a kid but I finally took the plunge this year and got my own birds. Love the eggs we have been getting the last few months and don't think I can go back...
