im not really new to chickens as they have always been in my life, my aunt has always been one to be a lover of poultry, recently when i asked my soon to be 5 year old daughter what she wanted to get her grand father for easter she said little chicks.. so we ordered him some EEs that are our "chickens" now or chickies as my daughter calls them.
currently we have 7 EE hens, and 1 roo. but my father has buff orpingtons, and heavy production reds along with some rhode island reds. currently raising some broilers for my aunt.
i found byc because i wanted to gawk and make a choice on my dads easter "gift" which cam late so i guess its easter/fathers day
my other hobbies... gardening and cooking, i used to be a cook and am the daughter of a farmer so the chickens came naturally though i still miss working with the calves. before i was a cook i was a butcher.. so being a cook was second nature and gave me quite a connection to the land and animals.
my family, i have 2 aging parents, an active duty army husband who will be out of the service by august, a young 5 yr old daughter and a 8 month old son, i have relapsing remitting multiple sclerosis which keeps me from my old job, but im hoping my "chickies" give me a stress outlet to help.. chickens cant judge me
, i also have 2 house cats, robert (full black) and sid ( silver rosette bengal).
i would be happy to trade mutt eggs or specifically looking for welsummer/ maran hatching eggs; my mother has professed that she wants heavy gold wyandotte...
