1) Are you new to chickens / when did you first get chickens?
New to owning chickens…grandparents had chickens I enjoyed as a kid. Freshly hatched chicken “owner” as of April 29,2022 beginning with a RIR “rescue chicken” named Bocephus…who of course needed friends.
(2) How many chickens do you have right now?
That would be 9…but 9 is an odd number and I don’t like odd numbers they make me twitchy lol so…gonna have to fix that problem.
(3) What breeds do you have?
1 Rhode Island Red
4 White Leghorns
2 Black Sex Link
2 Red Sex Link (Cinnamon Queen)
(4) What are your favorite aspects of raising backyard chickens?
Having 9 new best friends…well 8…Bocephus just uses me for snacks.
(5) What are some of your other hobbies?
Reading while hubby Bass Fishes, knitting, gardening, crafty stuff and I’m a football mom so that’s about all else there’s time for.
(6) Tell us about your family, your other pets, your occupation, or anything else you'd like to share.
Hubs and I have 2 HS age boys still at home and 2 grown, we have a Boston Terrier and a Geriatric Boxer, and I work in healthcare.
(7) Bonus: How did you find BYC, how long have you known about BYC, and what made you finally join our awesome community?
probably googling something I was trying to figure out about the Chicky Friends…I’ve lurked for a while and finally joined cause y’all are awesome.
Pic is from the day Bocephus joined the family…unannounced lol and my Boston who was not impressed.
