Hi Y’all. Thank you for adding me.
I found BackYardChickens.com from a Google search, and I’ve been hovering for about 2 weeks now. After reading a few very interesting and informative posts I likes how folks aren’t rude or judgmental and are just kind country people, so I decided it was just time to join!
As I was growing up, we had 49 chickens and 1 very happy rooster, however I’m not assuming my folks knew everything, and I am assuming y’all can share a lot of new information with me through your experiences.
I don’t have any chickens at the moment, but we are about to convert a mini barn into a coop and add a fenced in yard for our chickens. We plan to buy from farmers we know, and only buy about 6 because I don’t want to over crowd them.
I love gardening, so I also plan to allow my chicken to eat larva and insects etc from time to time (when I’m with them as we have 2 very fearless cats).
As for hobbies, I enjoy Geocaching with husband and grand-kids. I’m always busy organizing some sort of lady’s group events. Currently, I just got approved by our town’s Parks Board (we have 4 parks), to organize and host a Pizza-Bake Off within our town. We have 16 different pizzerias! I do these types of things to help the community stay a community as its growing vastly, and help people interact outside their “circle of friends.” I enjoy watching it all come together and see people enjoy themselves.
