Just a small chicken operation

[Sally Winter-Swink]

We are retirees in south central North Carolina. I've been looking at BackYard Chickens for a couple months, finding lots of new ideas. We have two 2-year-old Rhode Island Red hens and now six little RIR-Barred Rock cross pullets. The coop is too small for more than 7-8 hens, though I (but not my husband!) have dreams of going a little bigger. Why chickens? We love the eggs and get a kick out of watching them and their unique personalities. We give away excess eggs, finding joy in sharing the blessing.
