[sacky85]

(1) Are you new to chickens / when did you first get chickens?
I've had my current flock since moving to a small farm about 2 years ago, though I had chickens as a child, and a pet chook "Nugget" in a share house whom we spoiled and let sleep on our beds
(2) How many chickens do you have right now?
13 hens
(3) What breeds do you have?
12 ISA browns and 1 Australorp
(4) How did you find out about BackYardChickens.com?
Searching online for tips and advice
(5) What are some of your other hobbies?
Gardening, music, building, travelling, camping, hiking
(6) Tell us about your family, your other pets, your occupation, or anything else you'd like to share.
I live with my wife on a small farm in Australia, and also have 4 sheep, 4 alpacas, 3 steers (as well as our chooks). I work at a school for students with behaviour difficulties whom are in & out of juvenile justice and/or live with foster carers
