Hello from Maine!

[Topato]

Hello,

My name is Andrew. Thanks for letting me join. I'm pretty new to having chickens. We just got our first ones in the beginning of June. We have 8 chickens. One rooster with seven hens. My rooster (rescued) and four hens are Svart Honas and three Rhode Island Reds mixed with Barred Rock hens. Been getting a lot of information from this forum as soon as we decided we wanted chickens. Every question I've thought of I've found here.
