YAY!
I am from Sydney (near the city) so I can't have a rooster But on the other hand, i might be able to get a Rhode Island Red hen soon and I heard they lay more eggs than silkies;) so I'm still really excited.
Aside from the time-zone differences...this site is awesome. I originally found it from pigeontalk.net...I think I might recognise some of the people from the pigeon forum *nudge nudge*
Anyway, I own only 10 ( ) birds at the moment as my parents are so anti-birds It's funny I was even allowed...
