1) Are you new to chickens / when did you first get chickens?

I am brand new to chickens. My husband brought home the Crazy Chicken Lady starter pack (4 bitties) from TSC in the beginning of April.

(2) How many chickens do you have right now?

10 now. 4 are about 5wks old and 6 that are about 2 weeks.

(3) What breeds do you have?

1 RIR, 1 Orpington,1 supposed to be Orpington, 2 Gld Lace Wyandotte, 2 unknown Bantams, 2 Golden Comets and an 1 unknown cockerel.

(4) What are your favorite aspects of raising backyard chickens?

Becoming a great chicken mom. Developing a bond with our flock and watching their personalities develop.

(5) What are some of your other hobbies?

Reading, crochet, Netflix binging.

(6) Tell us about your family, your other pets, your occupation, or anything else you'd like to share.

I am a wife and mom of 5 kiddos, 2 of which are still at home (15 & 17). I am also a Public Health Nurse specializing in people living with HIV/AIDS. I live in a rural area of Georgia. Other animals we have are cats and dogs, fish and a turtle.

(7) Bonus: How did you find BYC, how long have you known about BYC, and what made you finally join our awesome community? :D

I was trying to get help identifying a chick and Google kept bringing me here. After reading many articles, I knew I wanted to join.

:wee Welcome to the BYC @MrsMeanGreen ! All the best crazy chicken owners live here! I started with six hens that came with 8 cockerels but those 8 boys became dinner since they wanted to bite :barnie

Right now I have seven hens, 5 chicks (3 four week old, 2 two week olds in the same brooder) and 5 in the bator! Them 5 in the bator were wiggling yesterday but haven’t started pipping yet lol.

Hoping to get a good boy that I can keep around otherwise them boys are gonna be an amazing meal!

I hope you enjoy it here! Also don’t forget to check out the state threads and see if your state has a thread going so y’all can help each other close to home!
