getting back into poultry

[rogerthealien]

hello, i’m not exactly new to this website, but i haven’t made an account before. i’ve raised a lot of chickens / birds for my age (so i’ve been told) and try to keep purebred breeds just because i enjoy raising them. i raised seramas, bantam cochins, ayam cemani, rhode island reds, ameraucanas, sebrights, and california whites. california whites were probably my favorites. i’ve also raised fantail and roller pigeons and coturnix and bobwhite quail. plus loads of various ducks. a few years ago i stopped raising and sold all of my birds, but i’ve been ready to get back into it since moving. i’m going to pick up some ancona chickens and coturnix quail tomorrow, and that’s going to be what i’ll raise for a while. i’ve always wanted to raise anconas, so i’m pretty excited for that haha.
