Hello from NH

[hearthofthehome]

Greetings, I am new to byc but I have been reading for a couple of years. About 1.5 years ago we finally purchased our homestead and started a big garden and plans for chickens. Beginning this past May we began with 6 chicks, 2 easter eggers, 2 Silver Wyandottes and 2 Buff Orpingtons. The Buffs are definitely the friendliest but I think the easter eggers are our favorites. They share a 5X12 hen house plus run with 3 guineau fowl (one of them is "pearl"). We also raised 3 ducks from ducklings, one female Indian Runner and a male/female pair of Cayuga. We hope to expand to some kind of dairy animal in the future. We are a homeschooling family of 9 in lovely NH.
