Welcome to BYC!!Hello everyone!
I remember like it was yesterday, sitting on my uncle’s bench, in his chicken run while visiting him in Oregon, from where we lived in California.
I sat there for hours, just watching. Fascinated. While my family chatted amongst themselves. I was completely content & at peace, sitting there, feeding those chickens.
I was 12 years old. I now find myself turning 42 this year, and I FINALLY have a piece of land where I can have chickens. In fact, it was one of the criteria for our house hunt in June.
We finally found the property. We finally have the coop being delivered on Monday. My day-old chicks will be sent to us in February… carefully considered & chosen breeds. I’m beside myself!! I cannot believe it’s actually happening! This has been a dream of mine for so long! My 12 year old self probably wouldn’t have believed life would be such that this dream would become a reality, 30 years later. Maybe she would have lost hope, if she had known it would take this long? Maybe… But hey! We’re here! And I’m so excited to be a part of this chicken loving community! Thanks for all you’ve posted, recently & in the past. It all helps.
Many Blessings,
Crystal
Congrats on finally fulfilling your dream! What breeds did you pick out?
What kinds did you get?
Maybe next time.
