Ok y’all, I guess it’s time to answer my own questions:

#1 Why did you choose your username:
TheChickenGirl because I adore chickens. I love all things chicken, and am a total chicken nerd. 16, because I was 16 at the time.
#2 Anyone else obsessed with Wyandottes?
Ah, Wyandottes! How I love them! Mine aren’t particularly friendly either, but they sure are beautiful! (And make great mothers, I must add.)

I have 3 Gold Laced, 1 Silver Laced, and a Blue laced.
#3 What State do you live in?
Tennessee
#4 How many chickens do you have?
Oh boy, let me see…
24 hens, 2 roosters, 41 chicks,(8 of which are suspect cockerels), and a broody who has taken 17 eggs for herself. So my numbers will be all be changing in like 11 days.
#5 Do you have children?
No kiddos, although I’ve got 8 younger siblings, who I’m doing my best to help with.
#6 What’s your favorite thing about your flock?
I love how excited they are each day, when I go out to let them out of their run.
I also love how they follow me all over creation.
And finally, I love that they actually come when I call them.(I taught them a special whistle as chicks, weather under a broody, or in the brooder, and they always come to it!)
#7 Whose your favorite chicken?
This one’s a little tricky for me…
I love my rooster, Mr Darcy.

And my 3 1/2 month old pullets, Shirley, Goodness, and Mercy.

Goodness is the Blue Laced Wyandotte, and I think she’s my favorite.
#8 Do you free-range your flock?
From 1pm until bed
#9 What is your average egg count?
3 pullets are not laying, 2 are broody, leaving me with only 18 layers.
I usually get 14 or 15 eggs.
#10 Do you have other animals?
I’ve got 2 goats, Poppy, and Sheriff.

I wanted goats too. Almost got the (ex) wife to go for a couple Nubians. Unfortunately, her boyfriend had other ideas.

So I answered 1 - 4.
#5 My children are grown.
#6 My favorite thing about my flock is their appreciation for me, and their eggs!
#7My favorite Chicken ? They are all special,. Our Brahma is pretty special with her friendliness. My Rhode Island Reds -Annie and Rosy are sweet and like to escape to the side yard. My Wyandotte, Buttercup is another escapee from time to time, and the straggler going in at night.

#8
I FREE RANGE IN MY YARD SOMETIMES and mostly it's in their own own and yard. I do this because I live in town, have a few dogs that could chase them if i am not watching out, and have flowerbeds that I prefer they don't tare up. Yet, I want to let them have arcade to grass and weeds too, so I let them out now and then.

#9
I have cats and dogs that go in and outdoors for animals.

#10 our average eggs are varied due to the season- Here in Vermont it's hard to really know at times. Maybe 6/7 a day if a good week in the summer.

 

[Momsbusiness]

Here they are; I quoted them from @SkyAJK’s post.

There is also this question:

Yes, I do name my chicks. It helps to make the feel more like real pets and they are part of our family. So it's a connection thing for me.

Rules are simple.
I’ll ask questions, you answer them.
(You can also ask your own questions if you wish.)
Please do not argue with other members. We are all individuals, and each have our own preferences.
Do not answer any questions that feel too personal.

#1 Why did you choose your username?

lol I don't really know, its just a nickname my twin and I came up with so I use it for random stuff...

Currently that they are pretty unique in that I have started breeding my Jersey Giants and Rhode Island Reds... BEAUTIFUL hens!
