Hi everyone, my name is Jennifer. I have had chickens for about 9 months now and I couldn't be happier! I LOVE them. I started out by planning to get 4-6 chickens.... I now have 16 with 8 more day old chicks on order for April... hmmm... chicken math.
I always have questions and it's good to know there are a lot of people with answers! I am terrified of things like vent gleet, sour crop, bumble foot, egg bound, mites, lice, respiratory infections... I have yet to have to treat any of these things.
I live with 4 dogs, 17 cats (long story), 3 rabbits, a guinea pig, and some fish.
