Hello from Upper Michigan

[Weimmom]

Hi everyone, I'm so excited to be here! I am new to raising chickens, we just got 8 this spring. We have Silkies, Barred Rocks, Silver Lace Wyandotte, Americaunas and a Black Australorp. I was Googling some questions I had and that's how I found Backyard Chickens. We live on 4 acres with our Wiemaraner, 2 rescue cats and our 8 chickens. We own a business and thankfully that allows me to spend more time at home gardening and just hanging out with the chickens. I'm absolutely obsessed and in love with them! I'll admit that here because I know most of you feel the same way and won't think I'm crazy!

Welcome here!
That's a nice mix of breeds you got there, beautiful chickens. Your home sounds lovely too, with all those animals!
This is a safe place for crazy chicken-people, so I'm sure you'll fit right in. Haha!
