Thanks so much to everyone-I found a neighbor with hundreds of chicks. I got several different kinds from her. They are all just days old, so I'm back doing the baby chick routine. Rex, my horse, can hardly eat his supper for staring at his new barnmates!
Thanks again for all your kind help.
Feel free to laugh-I did. I got my first ever chicks this spring from Tractor Supply-6 sex link hens. Now, 10 weeks and a beautiful chicken yard/house later, they are CROWING. Now, I am new to chickens, but I'm pretty sure hens don't do that! So much for eggs in the nest boxes this summer...
Hi everyone! Though my DH and I have lived in the country for 30 years, we are new to chickens. We got 9 sex linked hens and 3 as yet to be determined black and white chickies. Who knew chickens were so much fun?
In addition to the chickens, we have 3 horses, 6 dogs, 10 cats, and a parrot...
