Hello! I am a fairly new chicken keeper (or maybe they keep me). I have a white Amerancauna rooster named Daisy (he was supposed to be a hen), one Amerancauna hen named Daffodil, 2 Rhode Island Red pullets that I hope actually are hens (Buttercup and Blossom) One red sex link pullet (Bubbles) and another Amerancuana pullet that I also hope is a hen (I have my doubts) named Mojojojo. My daughter named them all, except for Daffodil. she loved the powerpuff girls when she was little.
I seem to come to this site whenever I have a question, so I figured I should go ahead and join.
I went back and read about what I should post so...
We live in Alabama. I got my first pullets a year ago. We started with 4, but ended up with 1 rooster and 1 hen (the others were eaten by predators). I got 4 more pullets this spring. I am married with 2 teenagers, we have 4 horses (mine is Molly), 3 cats, 1 dog and of course 6 chickens. My husband built a small chicken tractor, but we decided that it really isn't large enough to leave them in when we are gone, so he is building a larger coop for the hens. My evil rooster is now living in a bachelor pad, and actually seems happier and less manic now that his is by himself.
