No, I want to learn more. I teach Middle School Art in an Inner City environment. I am having to teach an extra class this semester and have 164 students total. Cochins are my therapy! I actually love the kids but my chickens are nicier and listen better!

That sounds both exciting and challenging! Hmmm - maybe you could teach them about the Art of Incubating and Raising Chicks!

I've bred and shown Ch. Dobermans. NOT fun. Haven't decided about the chickens yet. Seems like they might have similar issues.​

Chicken genetics are confusing!
I raise and breed: rats, mice & rabbits. I have no problem with those genetics, but chickens are hard,lol.

I took some pictures a few weeks ago before I trimmed everyone up for breeding - thought I'd finally get around to sharing!

He has a whole bunch of pin feathers coming in on his head, that's what all that glare is

First batch of eggs from these 2 went into the 'bator this week!

Love "Debit" and "Credit"!

My brother is a professor at Anderson University (in Anderson, SC). He and my Dad both also raise chickens. My brother has been using hatching eggs for his genetics and developmental classes. I am sure that is much more fun than the bazillion fruit flies we used in genetics class.

I think we all should continue to learn things everyday. and this is a fun hobby to learn about, so more power to you!
