I will answer the questions on the introduction so you guys can get an idea on who I am.
1) I am fairly new to chickens, getting my first 6 on Christmas 2016.

2) Depending on the time of reading this, I have between 10-15 chickens, with right now having 11.

3) I have 3 Red sexlinks, 1 White leghorn, 1 Danish leghorn, 3 easter eggers, 1 golden laced Wyandotte, and 2 Rhode island reds.

4) I found out about this website when I needed research for getting future chickens.

5) my hobbies mostly include hanging out with my flock.

6) I have 3 dogs (2 of which killed chickens), a parakeet who needs to die (she is named Meanie for a reason, and she is over 6 years old by now) and my 11 chickens, who we consider family, or pets, as opposed to just farm animals. We keep them in a custom made coop that exceeds 450 lb. and can house 16 chickens with a lot of room, 40 if it's cramped, since there are 2 sections, and a large run with food and water.

We love our chickens, and sell our eggs, which are trusted by the small sum of people we give them to.

Love the profile Welcome to Backyard Chickens glad you dropped in
 
G’Day from down under patriot_ameraucana :frow Welcome!

Great intro! Thank You! :clap

I hope you enjoy being a BYC member. There are lots of friendly and very helpful folks here so not only is it overflowing with useful information it is also a great place to make friends and have some fun.

If you include your general location on your profile, this will assist others. Location, climate, season etc can be important factors when members are responding to any questions you may have.

You might want to also Find Your State Thread and pop in and say hello.

BYC has Topic of the Week articles which I have found to be a great resource and a one stop shop for questions which may have already been discussed within the BYC membership group. This one in particular may be of interest to you as you are looking at expanding:
Topic of the Week - Adding New Chickens to the Flock

If you would like to share Pictures and Stories of your flock or other critters, including Meanie :p you have come to the right place. BYC’ers never tire of these and do not back away slowly or commence eye rolling when the photo album or home videos come out ;)

Hey glad you joined
Does your name mean you love Ameraucanas I hope so.
 
:frowW E L C O M E:frowI enjoy hanging out with my flock to. If I spend enough time with them and give them enough treats and let them eat better than me, I might be able to convince them that I'm not going to eat them. Once we get that out of the way and they accept me into their flock, hanging out with them is more enjoyable and less awkward.
