I have a dog and a cat. My pitbull rescue is a great chicken dog. There's one chicken that will even peck at a stick he was chewing on. So I really scored with him! The cat,. well I don't let him near the birds when they are small cause he's a ninja and I don't think that would go well! Besides my small urban farm that I love,. I'm a motorcycle mechanic by day.
(7) Bonus: How did you find BYC, how long have you known about BYC, and what made you finally join our awesome community?
I've been a long time visitor- when researching certain topics the forum would come up. I guess it was these 3 little ducklings I just got. They are so new to me and fun and adorable! (can you tell I'm totally head over heals!) I thought it would be fun to be a part of the community.
Thanks for having me!
