Hi! I'm Adrienne and I have 35 birds...

[FarmsteadSmith]

Hi and welocome! Sounds like you have an awesome flock!

I have 14 mutt chickens, Auraucana crosses, Silkie, Partride Wyonette crosses and little black bantams of some kind.

I have two geese, a Roman Tufted Embden gander and an Embden Toulouse goose.

I also have 3, 8 month old Cayuga Muscovy cross ducks i think (hope) are female and 11 Cayuga eggs in the incubator.

What i loved about your post is that the title reminded me of someone introducing themselves at an addiction support group.. Which for some of us might not be far off

They are all really great birds! I could give or take my Australorps... Haha. I love having such an eclectic bunch!

I wanted Cayugas so bad when I got my ducks. I originally ordered the 4 swedes with 4 cayugas, but the cayugas never came. I am sad, that they didn't come but then again, my ducks and geese are alright. I love my chickens though. Haha.

I feel like I have an addiction. I cannot keep my mind from dreaming about more chickens! I'd like to breed some, I think. I am in the researching process still, but my mind is probably made up. I'd like to breed Blue Langshans.

Loved your introduction- guess that sounds true about Salmon Faverolles but they are sweet. You would really enjoy the thread about "Derperella, the weird Samon Faverolles hen" or words to that affect. She is a character beyond compare.

I bet that would be funny! They are stupid, but hilarious to watch. They mostly hang out under the coop. But when I come out to hang with the chickens, they come to me and tell me the day's gossip. Haha.

Ooooooh! The lavender?! I bet they're so pretty!!

I really love the birds that are "blue" and "lavender". I guess I'm particularly fond of shades of grey.
