I had chickens probably 15 years ago and circumstances required a move, and no more chickens. Now we are back home and a neighbor is building me a new chicken coop. I'm looking forward to getting some chicks and maybe a few pullets this spring. I want some Buff Orpingtons, maybe a couple of barred rocks to start. I had used an incubator to hatch some myself and I'd like to do that again. But I'll need to get a new incubator. (Any suggestions?) We have a lot of grasshoppers here and I used to enjoy watching the chickens chase them around. I've got to relearn just about everything about raising chickens so I'm looking forward to learning from you experienced chicken folks. Since we had our first real snowfall today it looks like I'll have time to ramp up and practice patience waiting until I can order my new kids. Thanks for this opportunity!
