I've been lurking around on BYC for a couple of months now - I love reading about everyone's birds! But I finally gave in and decided to sign up. So hello! I used to raise poultry and I was active in 4-H. My favorite birds were my D'Anvers, OEGB, and my standard and bantam Naked Necks. I had quite the managerie of misc pet chickens too. Anyway, my last red standard naked neck passed away about seven years ago (I downsized to go to college but kept Boogie) and decided I would never again raise chickens. She was my buddy. We traveled around to Lake Chelan, California, Oregon, and Idaho together. Anyway, to make a long story short, my husband talked me into a pair of chickens again (and is now building a large coop - as if he plans to add to the family). He fell in love with our chickens as quickly as I did.
