(1) Are you new to chickens / when did you first get chickens?
I got my first chickens about 3 years ago but share a larger flock with my mom.
(2) How many chickens do you have right now?
I have 60 chickens, 18 ducks and just got my first goose.
(3) What breeds do you have?
I have too many too name but my favorites that I have are Sebrite Bantams, Golden Neck dāUccle, Blue Copper Marans and I really love all of my mixed chickens that I have hatched myself.
(4) What are your favorite aspects of raising backyard chickens?
I love that each chicken seems to have their own personality and they are each so special. I do everything I can to make my chickens have a good life.
(5) What are some of your other hobbies?
I garden in my greenhouse, I really enjoy growing flowers. I cook a lot and went to culinary school a few years ago.
(6) Tell us about your family, your other pets, your occupation, or anything else you'd like to share.
I live with my very large family with my six siblings and my parents. Me and my Husband bought land with my parents so we could start a farm. I sell chicken eggs and flowers in my farm stand. I am hoping one year to sell eggs for hatching or to sell chicks.
(7) Bonus: How did you find BYC, how long have you known about BYC, and what made you finally join our awesome community?
I am a long time reader but I just finally joined.
