Hi all, completely new to this forum thing, but trying to expand and break out of my shell.

We have had our Chickens for a year now. (but have been around them all my life). We started last year with some chicks from TSC, got what was left in the bantam bin (9 all together), 3 New Hampshire mini's, and 2 Buff Orpingtons. Plus 10 meat chicks, which turned out to be great! and are raising 50 of those this year for ourselves and family. This Spring I have added a total of 36 more layers! I may be slightly obsessed. (giving us a total of 50 layers)

In addition to the chickens, we have 4 horses, 4 Scottish Highland cows, 4 goats, 3 dogs and 2 cats.

I would like to learn all that I can, I enjoy all my animals and always wanting to keep them as healthy as possible and I like learning new ways of doing things.

any questions or if you just want to chat, I love talking about animals!
Thanks!

Hello and welcome to BYC! :frow Glad you joined.
50 layers!? I assume you sell your extra eggs.

Thank You!

Yes haha 50, but many are still babies and pullets and not laying yet only my 14 originals are laying. We free range so right now I am on the hunt for my bantee eggs, they were being so good laying in the boxes up until a few weeks ago and now I can't find any bantee eggs :(

When I do start getting egg numbers I will be selling the eggs, I also make pickled eggs and will hopefully be selling those.
