We are new ish to chickens! during covid I got 3 isa browns and absolutely loved them!! Ended up giving them away to young family when I was 9 months pregnant as knew I wouldn’t have the time to commit to them for a little while. But we just bought a farm and are building a homestead and finally finished my coop and got new gals!! 
- 3 x 19 week week pullet isa browns
- 2 x 8 week olive eggers (blue eggs)
- 1 lavender Sussex 12 weeks
- 1 red Ancona 8 weeks
- 1 exchequer leghorn
Our favorite aspects of raising backyard chickens is that our now 2 year old son is learning about where his food comes from. He knows chickens lay eggs, but we’re yet to show him and I love the look on his face when we open to check!
We have 3 bee hives and shortly will have our veggie garden up and running- I’m loving documenting our journey via social media and learning as we go!
We live in Australia and just moved an hour north of the city, excited during renovation and looking forward to introducing new animals to our new farm!
