[ROB KITZMAN]

Hello everyone, my name is Rob. I just started raising chickens this year. We have 8 Rhode Island reds, two black and white and two brown and black. Can remember what the four are called. We wanted all layers but ended up with one rooster. My wife and I have 2 boys 1- 5yrs old 1- 3 yrs old. We have two dogs 1- yellow lab 1- chocolate lab/ husky mix. Oh we also have one cat. I learned about backyard chickens by googling something.
