Howdy All!
First of all, I am so happy to have found this site, who knew there were so many things going on with chickens. Now for a little bit about me.
(1) Are you new to chickens / when did you first get chickens?
Not new to chickens, my family had a small backyard flock of white leghorns for eggs when I was a kid. I also raised chickens (broilers) as my FFA project for 2 years while in high school.
(2) How many chickens do you have right now?
Currently I have 18
(3) What breeds do you have?
Barred Rocks, SC Nankin, Sussex (buff, coronation and light) and 1 wayward RIR
(4) How did you find out about BackYardChickens.com?
I found it in some search or other oneday.
(5) What are some of your other hobbies?
I also collect Breyer model horses and show and breed chow chows.
(6) Tell us about your family, your other pets, your occupation, or anything else you'd like to share.
I have been married to my best friend for almost 15 years and have a teenage daughter and an adult son. We have a menagerie of critters including 6 dogs, 1 cat, 2 horses, 3 rabbits and 18 chickens. Right now I am basically a retired pet groomer although I still have a few clients. I am hoping to possibly get into showing chickens in the future.
