(1) Are you new to chickens / when did you first get chickens?
I am! I first got chickens a couple months ago after a lot of research.
(2) How many chickens do you have right now?
I have four chickens at the moment, sadly I’ve had two pass away from Marek’s, despite being vaccinated.
(3) What breeds do you have?
I have a red sex linked, a barred rock, and two silkie/brahma crosses.
(4) What are your favorite aspects of raising backyard chickens?
They all have completely different personalities and are so interesting to watch. I’ve never had birds before so it’s a completely new experience for me.
(5) What are some of your other hobbies?
I have many pets, but what I am passionate about is horse back riding. I own two horses and compete in hunter/jumper.
(6) Tell us about your family, your other pets, your occupation, or anything else you'd like to share.
I have a ball python, two dogs, two horses, a donkey, four barn cats, two pet rats, saltwater fish, chickens (obviously xD), and two house rabbits!
As I said before, two of my chickens have passed from Marek’s. I know there isn’t much else I can do other than pray not all of my others suffer the same fate. I am going to try a mix of colloidal silver and saint john’s wart, which some people swear by. (Check our the story of Penelope the Chicken). What a terrible disease. Breaks my heart.
