In the Brooder
I’m terrible with introductions, so I’m just going to do a lil copy/pasta 
(1) Are you new to chickens / when did you first get chickens? Pretty new. We had chickens and ducks off and on growing up. My husband grew up with Chickens. We got our first chicks for our home this spring.
(2) How many chickens do you have right now? 3 big babies that have moved to the coop and 4 new bitty babies.
(3) What breeds do you have? Big Babies: 2x Mystic Onyx, 1x bantam (possibly a MF or Patridge Cochin) and our 4 littles are all bantam. From an assorted batch.
(4) What are your favorite aspects of raising backyard chickens? Their personalities. My little boy has always had a fascination with birds in general so he is loving having chickens. He says they make his heart so happy it has a beak now! (He is 5)
(5) What are some of your other hobbies? Is being a mom a hobby?! I don’t have much else, we love camping and I chauffeuring my kiddo to his activities like swim team.
(6) Tell us about your family, your other pets, your occupation, or anything else you'd like to share. I am married, we have a 5yr old little boy. I am a substitute teacher and my husband travels for work doing Wireline in Texas. We have a 3yr old Golden Retriever named Rosie who was a rescue and is fantastic with out chickies. I’m def a newbie and we’ve had a few struggles. We lost our very first big babies to a stray dog who got into our yard. We were heartbroken. We’ve reinforced the fence and little coop and are starting work on a bigger coop/pen.
(7) Bonus: How did you find BYC, how long have you known about BYC, and what made you finally join our awesome community? I found it while searching up what breed our bantam babies might be.
