I have dogs, cats and horses. I never really wanted chickens , because I was afraid that I could not protect them from my animals and other wild animals in the area! I took these chickens (1 rooster and 1 hen) because a lady that had them lost her house. She was driving around with them in her car! I told her to Bring them to me! I know almost nothing about chickens, but it didn't take long for me to star enjoying them. I am starting at the very little to know nothing stage. I need to build a chicken tractor, I need to learn about the dusting box, parasites and on! I look forward to reading your posts, seeing your pictures and hearing what you have to say! Thank you, RedBawk
