We are about to enter our fifth month raising chickens. My wife and I started back in March with 10 chicks of various breeds from our local feed store. The girls are all maturing nicely, but the first egg has yet to be seen. Soon, we hope. We broke up the flock so that our grandchildren could take part in this experience. Six of the hens still reside with us, and the other four are now at our grand daughters home about a mile away. I had to build two new coops and runs to accomplish this, but everything turned out well. Looking forward to being a member of BYC in my retirement.
