Hello!We have such a vibrant community here at BYC... tons of active friendly members. Of course, life gets busy, so I was thinking it would be fun to start a thread welcoming some of our peeps we haven't heard from in a while.
If that's you, come say hello and let us know what you've been up to.
(if that's not you, feel free to invite peeps you haven't seen in a while and say hi to those that post here)
I'm still here! Let me tell ya when you live somewhere where summer is only 3 months a year a gal gets busy! We are a week into receiving this years babies and so far everyone has made it!
I do have a question though for anyone on here, I have 6 laying girls that are now a year old, we received 9 new little ladies that we will be transitioning with them. I have never mixed young with old hens and would like to see what you all think of my plan. Along with my 9 youngsters we also have 75 broilers that they are mixed in with. We are hoping by week 4 (once they have their feathers) that we can just put everyone out in the big girl run together and that since there will be so many that nobody will get singled out and bullied by the big hens. I would like to recieve some input on this idea or what you would change. PS here is a shot of a few of them, with my cutest one getting in a good wing stretch!
