(1) Are you new to chickens / when did you first get chickens?
I got my first 16 chicks in April. 2017. I was 62.
(2) How many chickens do you have right now?
20 but there were 17 others who are now gone.
(3) What breeds do you have?
Barred Rock, New Hampshire. Production Red (Hatchery variety), Rhode Island Red, ISA Brown, Australorp, Bantams: Mottled Cochin, Silkie, Serama
(4) What are your favorite aspects of raising backyard chickens?
How funny they are. I don't eat many eggs but it's nice to give them away.
(5) What are some of your other hobbies?
Gardening, Online Trivia, Chicken related construction.
(6) Tell us about your family, your other pets, your occupation, or anything else you'd like to share.
My wife and I are both retired and in our 60s. We have a dog and an old cat who hates the dog and never comes downstairs. Spot is one of my remaining hens from my first batch. She's my favorite and losing her will be very hard. My user name should be 'Spot's Daddy' but the site wouldn't allow the apostrophe.
(7) Bonus: How did you find BYC, how long have you known about BYC, and what made you finally join our awesome community?
