I have 6 chickens.....3 cockerels and 3 hens. Just incubating 6 more so fingers crossed for hens. Hours of amusement, especially as currently in lockdown, although still working.

Has been a tricky year as two cockerels diagnosed with Mareks, although they seem to be doing ok 4 months in. Still mixing with the other members of my tiny flock as chicken vet advised all will be infected by the time it was spotted:(( no sign of it in the others. Have had two deaths....cried my eyes out. One in bucket of water (so be careful, the other from viral infection who I couldn't save dispite 2hourly syringeing of food (gruel and electrolytes) over four days.

I have 4 Brahmas and 2 mixed breeds. Vinnie, Jarvis, Oswald, Stella, Betty, Bunty.

I also own and ride two horses, Dylan and Harry, have two dogs Dougal and Ernie and two cats Dolly and Dottie. So despite lockdown am kept busy.

Found this site whilst looking for chicken info and have found it invaluable
