Hi I'm new to BYC and excited to learn more about the 3 chickens/hens that we are raising in our suburban backyard! We are relatively new to having chickens..especially at our home. Our daughter has been very involved in raising chickens at her HS this school year and raised 7 flocks. She purchased her own chicken 5 1/2 months ago, and raised her with the last 3 flocks at the school. Her chicken had to be re-homed 2 weeks ago when school was preparing to come to a close for the summer and she ended up at our home. The chicken bonded with our daughter and they are very attached to each other..she follows her around and the relationship is very fun. We purchased our first ever coop 2 weeks ago, and also bought two Wyandotte chicks so that our 5 1/2 month old Black Sex Link hen would not have to be alone - especially since she has always been around other chickens. We have 3 children and 2 small dogs also, and now our new addition of chickens. We are learning a lot as we go while enjoying our cute and energetic small flock, look foward to fresh eggs from our own backyard in our future, and look forward to learning much from this forum too.
