Hi! I'm a new chicken farmer in Atlantic Canada!

(1) Are you new to chickens / when did you first get chickens?
I'm new to chickens but have wanted to have a farmstead since I was a child

(2) How many chickens do you have right now?
We have 10 chickens so far, 1 rooster, 1 hen, 2 pullets and 6 unsexed chicks!

(3) What breeds do you have?
silkies, Belgian D'uccles, Leghorns, Jersey giant, Cochins (bantam), ayam cemani

(4) What are your favorite aspects of raising backyard chickens?
I love their personality. I find them to be like little beaked dogs in a way. I love learning more about those kind of birds.

(5) What are some of your other hobbies?
I love birding and hiking, as well as doing crafts (I'm not fussy as to which ones), I'm eager to learn just about anything.

(6) Tell us about your family, your other pets, your occupation, or anything else you'd like to share.
We have cats, budgies, a dove, salamanders and many fish. Plus the chickens of course. We rescue animals that are kept in less than adequate conditions and give them a good home when we can. I'm a food inspector but am studying birds for my masters in wildlife biology.

(7) Bonus: How did you find BYC, how long have you known about BYC, and what made you finally join our awesome community? :D
I found it while looking for answers about one of our chickens. I love reading through the threads and learning more.
