My name is Tiffany I grew up on a "funny farm" in Maine. My family recently decided to start up our own little poultry farm and I couldn't be happier 
(1) Are you new to chickens / when did you first get chickens?
In my adult life, I'm very new. I haven't owned chickens since childhood.
(2) How many chickens do you have right now?
64.
(3) What breeds do you have?
1 Cornish Cross, 2 Bantams, 4 Barred Rocks, 3 Black Sex-Links, 1 Jersey Giant, 9 White Leghorns, 8 Buff Orpingtons, 5 Easter Eggers, 6 Rhode Island Reds, 5 Black Austrolorps, 2 Golden Comets, 6 Black Silkies, and 2 Barnyard mix roosters.
(4) How did you find out about BackYardChickens.com?
Every time I Google for information, the first several pages are from BYC.
(5) What are some of your other hobbies?
Singing, Writing, Drawing, Learning, and Planning.
(6) Tell us about your family, your other pets, your occupation, or anything else you'd like to share.
I am a married mom of 5 who has been a stay-at-home parent for 13 years. My husband and I are taking a few years to start a backyard poultry farm and go to college. I am starting classes in a few days to earn a Bachelor's in Library Science. I also like to volunteer at the school and the local library, as well as attend classes through the Adult Ed office. As far as pets go, we also have 5 ducks, 2 guineas, 10 cats (5 are newborns), 2 dogs, 3 rats, 2 hamsters, a cockatoo, a turtle, and some fish.
(7) Bonus: How did you find BYC, how long have you known about BYC, and what made you finally join our awesome community?
Found it through Google, have known about it for months. I joined to get help finding breed standards so that I can choose the best traits when planning our breeding program.
