Hi there! I’m a new community member. I've been reading BYC articles for the past year and a half and I just decided to join the fun.

Yeah! Me too! I read up then said what am I waiting for? Post pics when you can, love all the different breeds. What took us so long?

Hi Jennlloyd, I have no idea...procrastination? commitment issues? Who knows, what matters is that we are here now, right?

 

[Jennlloyd]

Dang straight. I`ve had horses, cats, dogs, fish, but never chickens and now I am learning them and not to old to learn as they are teaching me the hard way in some cases. Love these silly birds and gonna love the eggs too.

Hello and Welcome To BYC!

The eggs are great Jennlloyd, but figuring these hens out is frustrating at times. I had 5 beautiful RIR, but gradually I had to butcher them because they were eating their eggs. I am now down to 1 RIR. I purchased 6 new "hens" this year from Murdocks just to find out 3 of them are roosters (lol). It's always something. I've learned to keep a sense of humor about it all.
