Hello all! I've been prowling around the site as a guest for a while, finally decided to join. Not sure really how to start, so just using the template i found.
(1) Are you new to chickens / when did you first get chickens?
No, but a refresher is in serious need. I got my first chickens, oh, back in middle school? Not long after we moved there, my grandfather took me to the auctions he goes to ever saturday. While they were doin their thing, i noticed a feathered thing poking around the barn. After following and playing with it, i found i loved the little spunky roo that lived at the feed store. Some weeks later, my parents went and bought an older retired race horse. While they were finishing the paperwork, i followed the mass of peeping sounds to some bins. And there, my love of chickens began. Wouldn't leave until i got me a batch, left with 16 oegb's and 16 LF, along with 16 ducks.
(2) How many chickens do you have right now?
At the moment, i have just 7 hens, but plan on getting a roo and more later on.
(3) What breeds do you have?
I have a hen LF Golden Star Sexlink, a white silkie bantam, a buff polish bantam, black japanese oegb, silver and gold duckwing and an unknown oegb.
(4) How did you find out about BackYardChickens.com?
Was trying to look up the names and future colors of my biddies and stumbled across this site. Foudn the 'Show me your oegb' thread and was hooked.
(5) What are some of your other hobbies?
Drawing, reading, writing and anything to do with nature. I'm a bird at heart and love me some outdoors. I love the piano and guitar, even though i have no clue how to play either. Figuring out how to put things together or figure out a problem not on paper is an exciting challenge to me.
(6) Tell us about your family, your other pets, your occupation, or anything else you'd like to share.
I have two dogs, a chihuahua who just LOVES my biddies, and a bulldog/lab mix rescue. I have a husband who is learning to love chickens as much as i do, working over a childhood trauma he had with a nasty tempered hen. I'm ever curious and love to find out new things. My motto is to learn at least one new thing every day, and to NEVER give up on something you love. Not much else interesting about me, really. I hope to have lots of fun and learn so much more about the cuties i so adore.
