Beginning Chicken Mama

[Dodylee]

Retirement hobby time! Have always wanted farm animals. Hubby likes eggs. A win win for us. I just bought 6 chicks. Black Jersey Giant "Rubie", Sapphire Gem "Sapphire" will be called Ira I think because I'm 99% certain "she" is a roo! Olive Egger "Olive Oyle", Americana/Easter Egger "April", Buff Orpington "Buffy", Isa Brown " Isabelle" (Izzy). Named to help me remember their breeds. I'm totally in love w them.

I like your naming protocol to help you remember breeds! And, yes, getting chickens does sound like a win-win for you and your husband.

Congrats on adding chickens to your retirement years, and welcome to our flock!
