I just wanted to introduce myself. My name is Emmie. I live in the Sierra foothills of California. I am a vet tech and have many animals. I had chickens when I was younger and lived with my parents. We loved our birds, but now that I know more I realize we were going about things wrong. We only fed them scratch as adults- things like that. Now I have done tons of research and want to try again. I recently bought 8 chicks and am having lots of fun with them!
