I pulled these sample questions from a different post, so I will answer them!
(1) Are you new to chickens / when did you first get chickens?
I am a brand new chicken owner (almost 3 weeks now)! My SIL has had chickens for years and I was always just a little disgusted by the big poops on the driveway at her house (she free ranges), but the eggs were good. On our latest trip to visit her, it was like a light bulb went off in my head and I decided it would be great to have chickens! I like farm eggs.
(2) How many chickens do you have right now?
Only 4 chickies for me right now - they are about 7-8 weeks old. They were hatched in my SIL's hay mow by one of her hens so don't know the exact birthdate.
(3) What breeds do you have?
Mutts! Mom is a black Australorp / silkie mix and Dad(s) are any of 3-4 roosters that I have never met. I am worried that 2 of the 4 may be boys so I will post pictures in the "What gender is this" forum once I can get them to stand still.
(4) How did you find out about BackYardChickens.com?
I came across BYC when we decided to get chickens and my husband starting building a pallet coop. I thought I better start my research!
(5) What are some of your other hobbies?
Love to crochet, read, go for walks, tend bees
