It is an addiction... I started by ordering 25 chickens from a hatchery... but before they came I brought home a silkie, a cochin and a polish... Then since most of my first order was DOA I got a complete replacement order (which turned out to have 4 "packing peanuts!")... but before they came I got 2 more silkies and 2 more cochins... Needless to say I have almost 50 chickens now... and most of them are under a month old... and only one is laying (got my first egg yesterday!) Yes, I have a problem... but I LOVE IT! Hahaha!! I will be selling some of these in the fall!!!
Thank GOD my feed store doesn't sell chicks!!!
