Eggscaping
Enjoying Life!
Hey all, I have been raising backyard birds for about 2 years. A friend of mine had a few too many and offered a starter flock, if you will. We began with 3 and now we have 38... chicken math at its best. We currently have Bielefelders, Crested Cream Legbars, French Black Copper Marans, Blue Copper Marans, Brahmas, ISA browns, Black sex-links, and 4 that are barnyard mixed.
My favorite aspect of having a flock of our own is having our own meat, as well as eggs, that we know are safe for our family to consume. I am a Registered nurse and my family's nutrition is simply preventive medicine.
I came across BYC doing a google search about Bielefelders, and after reading a few Q&As decided to be more interactive with other people with similar interests.
