I have had chickens for about 2 years now and often came BYC for answers to my questions. I just decided to join one day although I have to admit I am not a die hard computer person. Anyway, I have two Astralops, five white Cochins, two Anaconas, one RI and one Cherry, My Roo is a Butternut and the sweatest Roo I have ever seen. A real fretter. If he can't see his girls he'll start bellowing until they all come running. I also have 5 ducks; 3 Harliquins and 1 Roan and one mix. The information that I have gotten from this site has been invaluable especially the tips on worming. I prefer the natual way with pumpkin seed soup but the tube horse roundworm wormer is very convenient. I originally came from a large city came out to the country when I was a kid. More suburban now than country. Others around me think I'm crazy with my chickens and ducks that is until they get some eggs. Their comments " Boy you sure can tell the difference between the store eggs and the doz you gave me. They were great" Now I just have to find a way to get them to pay for them. I get the impression they think they grow on trees. lol Anyway it feels good to be associated with other chicken people. Hello to all and again I really appreciate all the knowledge. > Maggie
and Welcome To BYC! Sounds like you have a really nice flock! Fresh eggs do taste better than store eggs!
