I have feathered children

[Jjpp43aviary]

We started with chickens during the quarantine summer of 2020 as a way to ensure at least one food source. I've been leery of birds my whole life, but thought if I started with babies I'd get used to them. It worked! Of course, we only got 6 chicks to begin with but chicken math we now have 30. Initially started with a small coop bought via internet but now have 4 coops/runs (hubby made them). Currently, we have barred rocks, Rhode island reds, large fowl bym, buff orpingtons and green eggers. I love the personalities of my chickens and often just go sit in the runs with them during my days off.

Welcome! Chicken math strikes again!

I also enjoy sitting with my chickens. They take turns sittng on my lap, being petted. It relaxes all of us!

Hello, and welcome! Good luck with your flock! Spending time just sitting there and watching them makes for great chicken tv!
