(1) Are you new to chickens / when did you first get chickens?
We just rented a house that will allow us to have a few chickens. This will be our first time having chickens. We both grew up in the city, this is our first time living in the country.
(2) How many chickens do you have right now?
I have no chickens right now but intend on getting 2-4 in the next few months.
(3) What breeds do you have?
We are trying to figure out what breed of chicken to get. We want a family-friendly breed and are looking at starting with a pair of Silkies.
(4) What are your favorite aspects of raising backyard chickens?
That they can be family pets and also produce yummy free-range eggs.
(5) What are some of your other hobbies?
Gardening, baking, and reading.
(6) Tell us about your family, your other pets, your occupation, or anything else you'd like to share.
We are a two-adult household with an indoor cat and a senior Australian Shephard. We are so excited to expand our household, me more so than my partner lol
(7) Bonus: How did you find BYC, how long have you known about BYC, and what made you finally join our awesome community?
I have been a member of the BYC Facebook page for over a year to learn more about choosing and raising chickens.
Note: We are looking for any advice anyone would like to share when they first started raising chickens, especially those, like us, who had no experience.
