    Hello! I'm new to BYC. My husband @patnewk76 and I are just getting back into raising chickens. I had them when I lived in northern Indiana. After moving to east central Indiana when I met my husband, we had a few in a small backyard coop living in town. We now have more space, close to 3 acres...
