I’m Beth, I’m in Grove City, Ohio and I am starting a brand new adventure...backyard chicken mom!

My husband and I have never owned chickens before, but we’ve always wanted them...I found this group something like 15 years ago when I first started thinking about chickens! This year, while we’re working from home and quarantined, it seemed like an ideal time.

We have six chicks, because you have to buy six at a time in Ohio. We’d have liked 3 or 4, but we can work with this. We have two each of Red Cross, Golden Comet and Black Australop. Our favorite aspect of owning them so far is their sweet little peeps and cheeps...but we’ve had them less than 24 hours.

Outside of chickens, we love our family and doing nerdy stuff....we have six grown kids (ages 19-25, and five of them girls!) and are expecting our first two grandchildren this year. We have four indoor cats, three dogs (Boston Terrier, Lab/Greyhound mix, Golden Retriever), two ferrets, a hedgehog and a fish (but he lives at my office. ). I like to knit, crochet, garden and video game. My husband like taking care of us all and geeking out on nerd stuff.

it’s pretty surreal, after all these years, to finally have a profile and a reason to be here. ^_^ I cant wait to learn!!

Its a suburb south of Columbus...kind of southwest. It used to be a lot of country but it’s getting more development now.
