Just joined up yesterday so I am brand-new but have had chickens almost all my 60 yrs! Have a small farm in SW Va where we raise hair sheep, fainting goats, miniature donkeys and of course chickens. Have had Ameracana's for many years and have just recently aquired some true rump-less Araucanas and have a setting of Black Copper Marans in the incubator. Also building a new chicken condo complete with a wire covered large run to keep out the numerous varmints. Nice to see that so many share my passion( obsession?)...
