I am a relatively new chicken mom. I got my chickens mid-april and am awaiting their first eggs hopefully by October. I have a total of 13, 7 chooks are 3 months old and 6 chicks. My flock is a total mix. I have 2 brahma, 3 australorp, 2 barred rock, 1 polish, 1 EE, 1 RIR, 1 speckled sussex, 1 black sex link and 1 unknown.
I love my chooks and they've given my kids something to do/care for while they have been stuck at home. We are looking at another 5-6 months stuck at home at this point so the kids get to see the chickens grow up. They have learned a lot about them over the past few months. We are also planning to start a garden and start homesteading since we have the land and are allowed whatever animals we want out here (ag zoning). I want a small farm and we are working towards that.
