Hello everyone in the community!
Im very new to the site but not to the chicken life. I believe I have had chickens ever since I was able to walk. For a while I didn't because of where we moved to but we do again now and there even rare. Im only a teenager still on the verge of adult hood (18 its almost time to move out and take life head on in some cases.) But I think since im the last child counting my twin I may just live with my dad and help out. (My mom passes away and was who started raising chickens) So enough about the past lets talk now.
The chickens I have:
Iclandic- a breed that was not very common and is or was even rare. The don't really fit in the egg class as there eggs are around medium I believe or small. There know to be broody and have great personality. I have a whopping beginner flock I say of 9= 3 males and 7 females. The youngest male is my pride as hes the first chicken I ever hatched. The youngest female is my second chick to hatch who survived out of three successful hatches. This was the stage of when I was still learning to hatch chicks.
Guineas- I have three guineas out of 4. (One I had to put down. Got a broken wing and it was in pain so was put down)
I also have pheasant and what a unique fowl. So far I have five pheasant and four more we need to pick up. The ones we have now and to come are these (All the ones I have or am getting are in full color):
lady emeyst- As of now I have 1 male but I have another male and female pair I still need to go pick up from a breeder.
Golden pheasants- I also have a pair of golden pheasants I need to pick up from the same breeder.
I also have many other animals farm and pet alike. Ranging from rabbits , dogs, goats to reptiles and amphibians and small critters such as ferrets, gerbils, and some insects fed to the animals, supper worms, dubia roaches, and crickets. It seems like I have to many animals but there my passion and each individual is token great care of. Im also going to college right now to become a vet of all manner of animals, from farm to packet pets and maybe exotics. I hope to graduate from high school with a bachelors degree.
And to add to the rabbits I have 4 newborns that were born three days ago. She's a first mother and did great. Out of 12 the four survived. Which is good for a first litter or a new mother.
I believe this is all I think anyone would like to know and most would probably wish I stop typing. If you want to know anything about some of the animals or more information about the non-fowl critters let me know. I hope to make many friends and find great information! Thanks and I say hello to everyone.

Phasianus versicolor(green pheasant)- I have 4 females and I male. One female I have in side because she scalped herself from being in a small cage the was only half a foot tall. It was at a sale, the animals were not treated very well. They came home to a great lasting life of being show birds and future mothers and father
