Welcome to BYC! I'm from NC Texas. I joined a few months after I got my first flock of chicks, and I have thoroughly enjoyed it here. I am sure you will too! Good luck with your business. I would love to turn mine into a business as well, eventually. For now I am just enjoying my small flock for our own egg consumption. I have 18 hens currently, but it is perfect for feeding my family, with eggs to spare for my parents, in-laws and occasionally the preacher.
