Hello!

Hello!!! So cool to read your journey! Super cool you are in an old Farmhouse. We just moved into an old farmhouse as well, from the late 1800s. The foundation basement is original, but the original farmhouse burned down in 1912, so our oldest part of the farmhouse is from 1913. However the garage addition is from the 80s and the middle part of the house is from the 20/30s.

We have two barns that used to hold up to 200 horses for an old racetrack, but now it has our goats and alpacas. We are restocking our chickens cause we had to leave our old flock behind as the new owners wanted them. So we have 44 eggs set to hatch in early June over at Hatchlings. :)

Welcome!! Hope you enjoy the site!
 
Hello! My name is Amanda and I’m new to chickens with my first flock this year. We have 11 ISA Browns and 5 Easter Eggers ( one who is turning out to be a rooster I think oops! He’s pictured last). My fiancé and I moved into a late 1800s farmhouse last year and have been working to restore this chicken coop. The larger coop was unfortunately completely fallen in beyond repair. We had to clear out many dead and overgrown trees and debris as well as bring in some dirt to level the run. Excited to be here so I can learn as much as possible. We already had some issues with pecking so you may notice some purple feathers from the blu kote 😭 but they’ve graduated to their big coop and run and the pecking seems to be resolved and they are loving it. Still gathering ideas for what to put in their run but they’re loving their swing already. Our lamb Elizabeth Taylor is also pictured. Looking forward to reading all these threads!
