As soon as I get home from church.

 

[Brooks_]

I didn't know I would like them so much after childhood experiences with bad roosters and mean hens.

 

[tripletfeb]

Poultry is important to me because it's the first step for us to be self sufficient. And chickens feed millions of people, with their eggs and meat

 

[fluffycrow]

Poultry are important to me because when I visit my coop, it's like escaping reality, a way of reconnecting with nature, and the animals that are living so close to it

 

[MACCanadianCoop]

Because self sufficiency is important to me and because I like having lots of animals around me.

 

[Pampers]

Poultry are important to me because, going to my coop is a way to get some Peace and a break from busy day to day life, they provide nutritious and delicious eggs for my family and they give me so much joy to watch as they go about their day! Happy poultry day everyone!

 

[Poultrybonkers]

Poultry is important to me because I started with a rooster I bought from a hatchery was the first male I ever bought purposely and a dog killed him at 3 so out of all the eggs I set only one hatched was a hen and she kept his line alive even today with my f9s my line goes in 4 directions chocolates,Lavenders,easter egegrs and my laced/mottled project chicks like this one. I was determain to keep my roosters legecy alive and thats why poultry is important to me.

Poultry, in addition to contributing to self sufficiency, is rewarding in so many ways. Just being part of BYC is rewarding. I’m grateful for my flock and for BYC as well.
