Actually, I heard from her right before Christmas. She said she was doing well and mentioned she would be off here for a while. That's really all I know. She sounded happy to me.

Oh good! Thank you for the piece of information!

6 hens is certainly enough, and if they are dual purpose then my system would work for you too, if you rotate them into the freezer. I have found that I don't like chicken that I have raised, so they may as well live out their lives. I have the space and no restrictions.

That part works but getting up to 12 would get me busted! The owner of the rental next to us turned me in when I was over the limit...I had to process the extras in 10 days which was hard to do

So, if it were me that could only have 6, I would add 2 each year starting this year. Cull or rehome 2 and add 2 each year, maintaining a flock of 6.

I know. I miss stuff all the time because the site doesn't bring me to the first unread post, just the one I click on in my alerts.
