Having just joined, I have been enjoying checking out BYC. Since I've been around chickens since I was seven, and they were, and are, a big part of my life, I have some stories and thought that they might be enjoyed, too!
A little background so you all have some context...
I grew up completely "off grid" at a high altitude location in Colorado. We raised 150-200 hatchery run cockerels to pressure can for our meat every year, and had 40-50 laying hens who we sold eggs from.
Since I married, we have had 5-30 chickens. Now my daughter is doing chickens in her first year of 4H!
Oh, and we are a busy homeschool family... there will be gaps between posts!
