Hi! My family got started raising chickens last year, when we bought 3 chicks from our local feed store. The girls are now about 9 months old, and they are all laying eggs happily. Deza is a Lavender Orpington, Flumpo is an Easter Egger, and little Jan is a Cream Legbar. Jan is the smallest of the three, perhaps due to some digestive issues she had early in life. Thanks to posts on this forum, I was able to diagnose it and help her get better.
Recently, Jan has developed a sore leg, which prompted me to join this group officially.
My husband's family had chickens when he was a child, but this is my first experience with chickens. Our girls live in an Eglu, and they keep us entertained with their personalities and activities.
In my non-chicken hours, I'm a librarian at our local public library, and my husband homeschools & takes care of our kids.
It's great to be here!
