Welcome to BYC!Hi. I've been raising chickens for about seven years. I have a terrible time resisting chicks when I go to the farm store in the spring. I love eating eggs with beautiful orange yolks. I appreciate eating poultry that I know doesn't have anything weird in it. And although I grumble about it, I do like the fact that needing to tend my chickens forces me to get outside even on the coldest winter days. Three years ago I bought an incubator. The thrill of seeing chicks hatch has added a whole new level of enjoyment to my chicken addiction. Looking forward to swapping stories and sharing info with y'all.
