Hey people,
My name is Don and I'm a retired home remodeling business owner who recently moved from the north, New York, to be exact, to the Blue Ridge Mountain area of VA. Finding myself with a lot of extra time on my hands, besides all the fishing I can do, and my love for fresh eggs, I decided to give chicken (egg) raising a shot. Waiting for the warmer weather to move in, I have already started drawing plans for a chicken coop. As I have over an acre of property, I decided to free range my chickens, My biggest problem at the moment is deciding how big and how many chickens I want. I have a few friends down here and figured i could also make a buck or two selling fresh eggs, so I guess the first step is to decide how many chickens.....hope to hear from others with suggestions
