(1) Are you new to chickens / when did you first get chickens?
I got my first 6, 6 weeks ago and I just got another 6 yesterday for Mother's Day. I am in total LOVE with my babies!

(2) How many chickens do you have right now?
I have 12 now. 6 are 6 weeks old and 6 are 2 weeks old.

(3) What breeds do you have?
all of them are Americana. the 6 older ones are red and the new ones are black.

(4) How did you find out about BackYardChickens.com?
I was on Google to find out how long I have to keep my 6 week old babies in the coup before I can let them free range and the site came up. Very helpful information so I decided to join the group.

(5) What are some of your other hobbies?
I am an avid outdoors woman. I like to fish, hunt, work on my farm and cook.

(6) Tell us about your family, your other pets, your occupation, or anything else you'd like to share.
I have one older sister, I've been married to my wonderful husband for 10 years, I have 3 dogs, 1 cat, 4 goldfish, and now 12 chickens! I live on a 15 acre farm in Okeechobee, Florida.
 
G'Day from down under padutchgirl :frow Welcome!

I hope you enjoy being a BYC member. There are lots of friendly and very helpful folks here so not only is it overflowing with useful information it is also a great place to make friends and have some fun.

BYC has Topic of the Week discussions which I have found to be a great resource, informative and sometimes entertaining; so definitely worth checking out.

If you would like to share Pictures and Stories of your flock, you have come to the right place. BYC’ers never tire of these and do not back away slowly or commence eye rolling when the photo album or home videos come out ;)

Including your general location on your profile will assist others. Location, climate, season etc can be important factors when members are responding to any questions you may have and vice versa.

You might want to also Find Your State Thread and pop in and say hello.
