- Are you new to chickens / when did you first get chickens? I've had chickens for 5 years now, my first 2 hens were a Silver-Laced Wyandotte and an EE.
- (2) How many chickens do you have right now? 11, but it looks like I have 2 roos in my batch of chicks so that # will change lol
- (3) What breeds do you have? 1 white-crested blue Polish, 4 Seramas (gold-laced, blue and washed-out Partridge) 2 Mille Fleur OEG bantams, 1 buff OEG bantam, 1 Frizzle, 1 buff Cochin bantam, 1 BTW Japanese Bantam.
(4) What are your favorite aspects of raising backyard chickens?
Their antics! I can sit and watch them doing chicken things for hours. I also love that no food or produce scraps go to waste anymore.- (5) What are some of your other hobbies?
I ride my horse, play Pokemon Go, read, craft, and sew.
(6) Tell us about your family, your other pets, your occupation, or anything else you'd like to share.
I also have 2 small dogs, 1 cat, 1 horse and 1 Guinea Pig. I work as an independent contractor for Amazon and occasionally PostMates. I keep indoor/outdoor chickens, as not everyone gets along and we dont have a ton of room so they all go out at different times. When it's bad outside, they get to roam the kitchen and living areas (those who accept their diaper )
(7) Bonus: How did you find BYC, how long have you known about BYC, and what made you finally join our awesome community?I first found you in 2014 when I did a Google search for chickens. I finally decided to join because I have a whole flock now, and some Assorted Bantams that needed ID.
