Hi everyone, I am new here

Here are my answers to the questions:

1) Are you new to chickens / when did you first get chickens?

We got our hens spring 2016. This is our first time with chickens!


(2) How many chickens do you have right now?

Three, Laverne, Shirley, and Babish.

(3) What breeds do you have?

Red Sexlink

(4) How did you find out about BackYardChickens.com?

Internet searches for chicken related questions.

(5) What are some of your other hobbies?

Knitting, sewing, reading, gardening.

(6) Tell us about your family, your other pets, your occupation, or anything else you'd like to share.

I am 27, have been married since 2012, and am a full time homemaker. My husband and I live in Ontario, Canada in a rural farming community. My husband is an environmental field technician, and together we are hobby gardeners and chicken keepers.

Glad you're here !

A must have for your poultry is a FIRST AID KIT for any issues that would arise. (https://www.backyardchickens.com/threads/suggestions-for-a-first-aid-kit.1150128/)
It's definitely better to have it and not need it rather than need it and not have it.

Also, make sure your coop(s) have a proper amount of VENTILATION. (https://www.backyardchickens.com/ar...-there-and-cut-more-holes-in-your-coop.47774/) Your chickens will absolutely thank you for it!
