Hi from Albuquerque, New Mexico

Hi there! My husband and I just got chickens yesterday and are excited to raise them here in Albuquerque, New Mexico. We both grew up with chickens, so it's been neat to have them around again. Cheers, Justin

Thank you all for your warm welcomes. We have four chickens. One is a Wynandotte, one a Delaware, and one a Ameraucana. The fourth one is a mystery chicken! :-D
