(4) How did you find out about BackYardChickens.com?
Searching out care information on the internet led me to this site
(5) What are some of your other hobbies?
I was born with the horse sickness

As a support agent for software I spend all day on the computer so coming home and tending the animals grounds me. The critter collection at the moment is just the horses (2 Andalusians, 1 Morgan) and 2 Schipperke dogs plus a barn cat on patrol. The chickens are new but very enjoyable.
