Hi everyone,

I've been reading this forum for years now, but I FINALLY got my own account :D

I've had chickens for about 8 years. Currently have a flock of ~250 layers (EE's, Australorps, Andalusians, Wyandottes, Cuckoo Marans, all hatchery quality) and project meat bird crosses. I sell eggs at my local farmer's market.

My favorite birds are the BBS and Lavender Orps I got from Papa's Poultry a few months ago. Also love my 2 little Mille Fleur booted bantam hens!

I'm from Central CA, and attended Karen's (sew'n'grow) BYC event back in early summer, it was tons of fun :) so I'm hoping to find some of the other attendees here; you were all great.

Looking forward to learning more and sharing with people who love chickens just as much as I do!
 
Hello there and welcome to BYC!

Wow...250 layers! It must take you all day to collect those eggs!!

Make yourself at home here and if you have any questions, feel free to ask.

Welcome to our flock!
 
Thanks!! I have lots of questions so I'll be on here frequently ;)

Haha they aren't all laying yet, so only getting about 50 eggs a day from the older girls. It takes longer to pack all those eggs into flats!

@Frindizzle ah, a flock with no pecking order... sounds like paradise. Thanks for the welcome!
