Greetings from Arizona! I have been lurking for a few months, since I got my first chickens, and thought I should join up. I would like to say thank you for all the great information. My ladies have benefited greatly, as I knew nothing. I am the proud head hen of a flock of seven: 2 Rhode Island Reds, 2 Black Sex-linked, 2 Silver-laced Wyandottes, and 1 Black Cochin. My 2 White Plymouth Rocks turned out to be Cornish crosses and were very tasty. I am looking forward to learning more and expanding my flock.
