Hi my name is Megan and I just recently moved to North Carolina from up north. We got the okay from our landlord that we can have chickens so I'm beyond ecstatic!! We have been wanting chickens for years but was concerned about up keep and being able to have enough time to care for them the way they deserve.
My boyfriend and I are really big into gardening and our goal is to become a little less dependent on grocery stores since we live and hour away from them. That and I HATE buying store bought eggs, I like to know where my food comes from. I have been doing so much reading about chickens I'm dreaming about them and driving everyone nuts with all my chicken talk. We are getting Rhode Island Reds for our time since everyone has said this is probably the best one to start off with. We are getting eggs from a friend that raises them and we will be hatching them.
I found this website a couple months back and I have already found it helpful I like that you can ask questions and get many answers or thoughts on a particular thing!
Once I get them and start taking photos I'll upload them.
