I have wanted to have chickens for years - fell in love with them at county fairs. I bought and read several books about keeping chickens and read backyard chicken magazines regularly for 2 years before I made the plunge so I would know what I was doing. I bought my first 4 chickens from a feed store near us 2 1/2 years ago. 2 Barred Rocks and 2 Rhode Island Reds

We lost one of our Rhode Island Reds to a hawk when they were 1 year old so we bought a rooster (Welsummer) and 3 more hens (2 Cream Leg Bars and 1 Welsummer) so our girls would have a defender. He's done a great job too!

BackYardChickens was one of the first resources I checked out when doing my research in preparation to beginning my chicken adventure

In addition to chickens I also love to garden, read, and watch sports (baseball and football)

My wonderful husband Ron does the bulk of taking care of the chickens and loves them just as much as I do! Whenever we go to the grocery he's always looking for treats to bring home to them (cantaloupe, cherry tomatoes, grapes, etc.). we are retired so we have lots of time to enjoy our babies!
