Okay, so after months and months of consulting on this website I finally decided to join and be active.

A little about me, my first name is Dannie and I live in New England and currently I raise Cornish X Rock chickens. Last year I raised 104 meaties. I still have 13 of them left from my last flock of 40 from September. I also have one Chantecler rooster because I'm interested this year in cross breeding my own breed of chicken with a less winter hardy bird that is good on meat.

I love keeping chickens. I have learned to much. Hi everyone!

Dannie, nice to meet you. Hope you enjoy BYC as much as we do.
 
Welcome to the forum. How did your chickens do in this awful winter? It is only just warming up where I am.

My birds survived with only a few frostbite sections of their cones. I lost four but for other reasons besides the cold. I had to switch their feed to a higher protein content and they needed one heat lamp but they made it through multiple -30 degree nights.
