Hello Fellow Chicken Tenders, and thanks for providing this forum!
1) Are you new to chickens / when did you first get chickens?
Yes, we are new to chickens, we just got our 2 Silkie chickens today.
(2) How many chickens do you have right now?
2
(3) What breeds do you have?
Silkies
(4) What are your favorite aspects of raising backyard chickens?
We had a great time building the coop and the run as a family. We enjoy raising animals, and are looking forward to harvesting eggs (although we get that Silkies aren't the best layers). Plus the silkies are so cute, and sweet and affectionate.
(5) What are some of your other hobbies?
Birdwatching, hiking and salsa dancing
(6) Tell us about your family, your other pets, your occupation, or anything else you'd like to share.
We are a family of 5. My husband and I spent 3 weeks building our chicken coop. It was a large endeavor and we are very proud of our accomplishment. Our son Manny is 9 and he wants to be a zookeeper or a vet, my daughter, Mati is 16 and my oldest son, Fern is 21.
(7) Bonus: How did you find BYC, how long have you known about BYC, and what made you finally join our awesome community?
