Day old to week 18

I’m so proud to share my journey with my new family/community.
Training this pullet has taught me a lot especially how to be patience with life.
Important of hardworking and dedication.
My journey haven’t been easy but as a first time farmer I’m thankful and grateful.
Out of 400 pullet I lost 20 birds..some during vaccination and some minor mistakes which I already learned from it.
Still waiting and expecting to come to the pen one of this days and see some eggs.
Would definitely be so happy about that..

So amazing that many, yet to only lose 20 is awesome!

If you want to keep a page here on BYC about your chickens, we have a forum. https://www.backyardchickens.com/forums/pictures-stories-of-my-chickens.39/

Just check it out and see if you'd like to create your own page there sometime. A lot of us have one.

Yes! Only losing 20 out of 400 is pretty great. I've had a bigger loss ratio with my small flock. Hope you start getting eggs soon!

Thank you so much..Definitely will have a page about my chickens.

Only a 5% loss rate is amazing! How big is your building?

Yes I guess I did very good…Spend all my time on YouTube learning.
Yes I’m hoping to see eggs anytime from now

That's a LOT of babies. I have 8 hens and that's a handful for me.Lots of eggs which is awesome. But I have other critters too.
Good luck in your venture.
