(1) Are you new to chickens / when did you first get chickens?
No, we have had several periods over 40 years when we have had half a dozen to a dozen chickens each time.

(2) How many chickens do you have right now?
None. We are ordered 6 Red Sex Link and expecting them early April. They will be 18 weeks old at that time.

(4) What are your favorite aspects of raising backyard chickens?
Love watching them wandering around, pecking the ground, following the grandchildren, fresh eggs!

(5) What are some of your other hobbies?
Gardening, cutting firewood, fishing, crochet/knitting, golf

(6) Tell us about your family, your other pets, your occupation, or anything else you'd like to share.
We live in a country setting, 5 Acres of land on the west side of Georgian Bay, Ontario. We are seniors with 2 adult kids and one son-in-law-law. We have 2 beautiful grandchildren and a Golden Retriever, Zoey, who is great with everyone and any chickens we have had in the past. We had a fox that got into our chicken run this past summer and killed all 6 of our chickens. As soon as the snow goes, we will have time to make the run fox proof.

(7) Bonus: How did you find BYC, how long have you known about BYC, and what made you finally join our awesome community? :D
Found you by searching about chickens and enjoyed the friendly, helpful atmosphere of the group. Hope we can add our experiences
