Hello!
Longtime lurker, first time poster, hoping to gain some more knowledge!
I'm still pretty new with chicken keeping. I got my 4 girls last summer and have been enjoying them (and stumbling through) ever since! I have an EE/silkie, Orpington/Silkie, Silkie, and Frizzled bantam Cochin. My 2 silkie mix girls are sisters and my first and the other two were also sisters that I got a little later.
Frankly, their personalities and just watching them roam my yard has been the most enjoyable. When I first got them, my dog, Bella, was so incredibly protective of them and so gentle. When she passed suddenly this past April, these little hens have really helped me and my partner find our joy again as we have grieved pretty deeply for our sweet old pup.
I love reading, spending time with loved ones and friends, and enjoying my space. I also really love crochet, dance, and going out to try new things. I'm a librarian and am constantly learning and helping others.
Aside from my lovely little ladies, I also have a soon-to-be 16yr old cat named Angus who loves to sit in his catio and chatter at them as they saunter about.
Thank you all for sharing your knowledge and info with me! I am a sponge and look forward to learning more!
