Been reading posts from these forums since I got chickens almost 3 years ago. Started with a dozen and after many losses and many more gains, we now have 26 chickens and 9 chicks of different breeds plus 4 ducks and 10 ducklings. I wanted chickens for years and was so happy to finally have to space for them. Now I can’t imagine not having them. Oh plus I have a basset hound I adore, 3 cats, 2 boxed turtles, 2 geckos, and a fish tank with cichlids, catfish, and loaches mostly. Oh plus a pond with catfish, bass, bluegill, and a snapper that’s about to be evicted. Love this forum and look forward to reading and learning a lot more here.
