just an opinionated question for a newbie...

[tugsail]

I was curious... :| What is the HARDEST

part about keeping chickens? I just dont want to overload myself. I am perfectly ready to commit, but i was just simply wanting personal opinions, rather than book-opinions.

What is the HARDEST part about keeping chickens

Losing them. Hands down.

 

[Break an Egg]

I agree, that and worrying about them.

I agree, losing them.

Especially hard when having to chose to lose them when it comes point to decide if you are keeping a sick animal alive for yourself, or for them.
