Hello fellow Chicken Lovers! Do to the rise and cost of eggs we decided to get our own chickens and why not we live on 23 acres out in the country. We currently have 16 chickens and they're giving us enough eggs to help support four to five families so it's been a pretty good investment as far as we're concerned... We have four different breeds and we just love them all ...they are quite entertaining.... it's also teaching our grandkids how to handle them with gentleness and egg collecting...feeding ...their good chicken herders too lol
