It all started when my daughter talked us into getting 4 chicks at the local feed store. At first I didn't pay much attention to them and my daughter did all the feeding watering and cleaning up. When they were old enough we let them out to free range. I was working on a project one day when the little bantam hen, Petunia, wandered up to me looked up and flew onto my outstretched arm. That was it I was hooked. Everytime I called out for Penelope she would come and fly up onto my arm. Today we have one bratty little Pekin bantam roo and a red sex link, two barred rock, 2 Rhode island red, 2 Welsummer, 3 chicks that are from the roof and a buff Brahma hen. We have built them quite a nice large enclosed pen safe from the coyote and hawks(learned the hard way) also they get to free range whenever we are home.
Loved your intro and sounds like you're already understanding chicken math
