(1) Are you new to chickens / when did you first get chickens?
Yes we are new to chickens as our own personal family members. Although, I lived in a small one time rural town and I have been around livestock and chickens throughout my childhood.
We got our girls in early August 2017 .....after much study and preparations. Woo Hoo!
(2) How many chickens do you have right now?
We have 4 lively and beautiful girls. They are about 9 months old now and I can see that they have grown since we got them.

My rainbow coalition consists of : a Jubilee Orpington, a black Americauna (sp ?), a white with black speckles Leghorn/Rhode I Red cross, and a brownish orange Rhode I Red/Bar cross.
